Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons yeast
- ½ cups warm water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup scalded milk (heat in saucepan until steaming and small bubbles show up around the edges — don’t boil it!)
- ¼ cups margarine
- ⅓ cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 3 ½ cups flour
Directions
Combine yeast and warm water and let the yeast dissolve for 5 minutes. Then add 1 Tablespoon sugar to the yeast mixture. Set aside.
Scald the milk and add in the margarine to the saucepan. Let cool.
In a separate bowl, mix 1⁄3 cup sugar, salt, the milk mixture and the yeast mixture together with the eggs. Mix well, and then add the flour 1⁄2 cup at a time. Stir until the sides of the bowl are clean.
Put dough in a greased bowl and cover with a towel. Let it rise for 1 hour or more, then shape the rolls however you like. Place them on a greased cookie sheet and let them rise until doubled. Bake 12-20 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
