JANELL'S ROLLS

2 cups milk, brought to a boil in microwave, aprox 5 minutes, add
2 t salt
½ cup sugar
½ cup shortening

2 eggs beaten

2 T yeast (If using SAF yeast, only use 1 T & you don’t have to let it raise
separately in the ½ cup of warm water, you just dump the
yeast and water and sugar in with the other ingredients)
2 t sugar
½ c warm water

Combine 4 cups flour to cooled milk mixture, beat then add eggs, beat,
then add yeast mixture. Add 3 cups of flour. Beat well. Let raise. Divide
dough in half. Form each half into a ball. Using a rolling pin, roll each
ball out onto lightly floured surface. It works well to spread flour on
the counter with a sifter and keep palms of hands covered in soft butter.
Spread the top with melted butter. Cut each circle with a pizza cutter
into 12 triangles, like a pie. Roll up like a crescent roll, beginning at
widest end of triangle. Place close together on a 10 x 13 cookie sheet
4 rolls across and 6 down. Let raise again. Bake 350 17 minutes. Butter
tops of rolls while hot.
