Mother In Law Rolls Recipe

	Debzy / All my dishes 11 months, 1 week ago These rolls are what my Mother in law calls her "ugly rolls". I've never thought they were ugly, but so absolutely delicious! The great thing is you can keep the dough in the refrigerator for days and use it as you want. Prep:15m Cook:15m Servings:24	Debzy

Ingredients

2 cups warm water

2 pkg yeast

1/2 cup sugar

6 cups flour

2 tsp salt

1/2 cup shortening

1 egg

Directions

Stir together the warm water, yeast and sugar, set aside.

Sift the flour and salt together, set aside

Cream the shortening and egg until fluffy

Add the water mixture to the egg mixture and then add the flour mixture until combined

Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, 3 to 5 minutes - either by hand or in a stand mixer with a kneading hook

Put in an un-greased bowl, grease the top of the dough only, you can do this by spraying with Pam

Cover with a damp cloth and put in the refrigerator

Use when desired, by pinching off enough to form a ball about 1/2 the size of your fist - just make as many as you need at the time

Allow to rise for about 2 hours

Bake at 400 degrees for 1- to 15 minutes until golden

**I think the dough will last about 5 days in the refrigerator...but we've never not used it that long!

Yes, I believe I have that recipe from back in the 70's...sooooo good, and way too convenient! You are so right, debzy, in that the dough never lasts 5 days in the fridge...more like 5 minutes!! Hot bread from the oven - delish...Krum
