School Cafeteria Yeast Rolls-

2 packages active dry yeast 1 ½ teaspoon salt

10 oz warm water 3 tablespoons shortening

¼ cup dry milk 1 egg, beaten

1/3 cup sugar 4 cups all purpose flour

Soften yeast in 4 oz of the water. Add remainder of water (6oz) in another bowl. Add the sugar, salt, shortening and dry milk in bowl. Add 1¼ c flour and mix well. Add softened yeast and beaten egg. Add the remaining flour (2 ¾ cup) to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth and satiny. Place dough in greased bowl and grease top surface of dough. Cover and let rise until double. Knead and shape rolls. Let rise again until doubled. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. This dough can be used for cinnamon rolls. (This recipe came from the high school where my mother taught Home Economics. This is the first yeast bread recipe I ever used.)

Barbarainnc--I made this recipe this morning. I wasn't sure how many rolls the dough would yield so I made 14. The rolls were about the size of a hamburger roll. They were easy to make and FABULOUS! Thanks for posting.

MeezerPleezer glad you loved the rolls. I usually make 15 rolls for a pan. I also use this dough to make cinnamon rolls. It was the first yeast dough I ever made. A family friend, Ruth, always made me cinnamon rolls for my birthday. So when I got older I wanted to learn how to make them.
