Instructions:

School Lunch Rolls

1 1/2 ounces yeast
1/2 cup warm water
2 1/4 cups hot water
2/3 cup granulated sugar
4 ounces shortening, melted
2 1/4 pounds all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup dry milk
2 eggs

Sprinkle yeast in warm water; soak until soft and bubbly, about 5 minutes; set aside.

Place hot water and sugar in mixer bowl; mix on low speed. Add shortening; mix on low speed.

Mix together 1/3 of flour with salt and dried milk; add to water mixture, mixing on low speed. Add eggs and yeast mixture; continue adding dry ingredients until all are used. The amount of flour may vary. Dough should cling to mixer and pull from sides of bowl. Remove dough to slightly greased pan, cover and let stand until double.

Punch down and form into rolls. Place on well greased pan; brush with melted shortening or butter. Bake in preheated 400 degree F oven for 20 minutes.
