Ingredients
2cupshot tap water
2/3cuppowdered milk
1tablespoonquick rise yeast
1/4cupsugar
1teaspoon salt
1/3cupbutter flavored Crisco
1mediumegg
5 1/2cupsBread flour
Instructions
Dissolve powdered milk and yeast into hot tap water (not boiling water.) Let sit for 10 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients and mix with a stand mixer paddle or dough hook.
Once dough starts to form a ball in the middle, remove from mixing bowl and place in a clean bowl, covered with a towel.
Let dough rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Dump dough onto counter that you've sprayed with cooking spray to avoid sticking to the counter. Also, spray your rolling pin (and your hands if you are going to touch the dough.
Do not add more flour. The dough shouldn't stick to any surface with the cooking spray. Roll out until the dough is about 11 X 17 inch rectangle.
Taking a pizza wheel, cut 1 1/2-2 inch slices, and one slice down the middle.
Roll each slice and place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, seam side down. You should get 20 rolls. Or 16 if you threw away the scraps to make a nice rectangle.
Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place. Should be ready when rolls have risen to touch each other.
Preheat oven to 375 and bake for 15-20 minutes. Check after 15 and remove if the tops are golden brown.
