Refrigerator Roll Dough - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 c. milk, scalded
1/2 c. lukewarm water
2 pkg. dry yeast
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. shortening (I prefer melted margarine)
2 c. flour
1 egg
2 1/2 c. flour

Preparation

In a small bowl measure lukewarm water and yeast.
Let stand 5 to 10 minutes, until yeast is dissolved.
To the milk add sugar, salt and shortening.
Cool to lukewarm.
Add and stir in about 2 cups flour; beat until smooth.
Add egg and softened yeast.
Add and stir in about 2 1/2 cups more of flour.
It may take more. Turn dough out on lightly floured board; knead until smooth and satiny.
Place in a greased bowl and brush top with margarine.
Let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, until double in size (about 1 1/2 hours).
Form rolls and let rise until double in size.
Bake at 425\u00b0 for 15 to 20 minutes.
