Party Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c. sugar
3/4 c. shortening
1 c. buttermilk
1 tsp. salt
3/4 c. water
1/2 c. instant potato flakes
2 pkg. active dry yeast
1/4 c. warm water
2 eggs, beaten
6 c. bread flour or all-purpose flour
melted butter

Preparation

Combine sugar, shortening, buttermilk and salt in medium saucepan. Heat until shortening melts.
Remove from heat and add the 3/4 c. water.
Add potato flakes and mix in with a wire whisk. Cool to lukewarm.
Dissolve yeast in warm water.
Combine buttermilk mixture, eggs, and half of the flour in large bowl; add the yeast mixture, beating with dough hook or beaters until smooth. Add remaining flour, a little at a time to make a soft dough.
If you have a dough hook on your mixer, beat dough for 7 minutes.
If you do not, turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for 8 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
