Make-Ahead Butter-Horns - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 eggs
    2 packages dry yeast
    9 cups flour, divided
    1 cup shortening
    3-4 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
    1 cup sugar
    1/3 cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
    2 cups warm milk (110 to 115 degrees)
    2 tsp. salt
Preparation
    Dissolve yeast in water.
    Add 4 cups flour, milk, shortening, sugar, eggs and salt; beat for 2 minutes or until smooth.
    Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
    Turn onto a floured board; knead lightly.
    Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.
    Cover and let rise in a warm room or until doubled, about 2-3 hours.
    Knead dough down; dividing it into four equal parts.
    Roll each into a 9 inch circle, brush with butter.
    Cut each circle into eight pie-shaped wedges; roll up each wedge from wide to tip of dough and pinch to seal.
    Place rolls, tip down, on baking sheets; freeze.
    When frozen, place in freezer bags and keep frozen until needed.
    To bake, place on greased baking sheets; thaw 5 hours or until doubled in size.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
    Makes 32 rolls.
