Extra Special Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 pkg. dry yeast
3 Tbsp. warm water (105~)
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. shortening, melted
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. warm water (105~)
1 tsp. salt
4 to 4 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp. margarine, softened

Preparation

Dissolve yeast in 3 tablespoons of warm water in a large mixing bowl; let stand 5 minutes.
Add sugar, shortening, eggs, 1 cup warm water, salt and 2 cups flour.
Beat at low speed on an electric mixer for 1 minute.
Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead 4 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
Shape dough into a ball; place in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in a warm place (85\u00b0), free from drafts, for 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
