Pillow soft dinner rolls

A great recipe just posted on Amber’s Delectable Delights from Taste of Home. These were easy to make and came together well. They are soft and light and delicious! I did do half ww flour and half ap flour and they are great! I froze them and they reheat well in the oven for a bit.

ENJOY!

Ingredients: Makes 24 rolls

4-1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)

2 cups warm milk (110° to 115°)

6 tablespoons shortening

2 eggs

1/4 cup sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons salt

7 to 7-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions:

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, shortening, eggs, sugar, salt and 3 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes (dough will be sticky). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 pieces. Shape each into a roll. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks.
