Homemade Rolls

3/4 cup shortening
1 Tbsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs

Cream above ingredients well in a mixer. Then add:

1 1/2 cups warm water
4 1/2 cups flour
4 tsp. yeast

Mix all ingredients well. Sticky dough. Let sit 1 hour. Stir down. Shape into rolls or put in fridge until needed.

For crescent shaped rolls, split dough into 2 or 3 depending on how large you want your rolls. Roll them out into circles and cut like a pizza. Spread with melted butter then roll them up starting at large end first.

Let rise about an hour or until almost double in size. Bake at 350 for 15-25 minutes.
