~Breads & Rolls~

1 Package of Active Dry Yeast
1 1/2 cups of warm water (105-115 degrees)
1 cup of unseasoned mashed potatoes
2/3 cup of sugar
2/3 cup of shortening
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
6-7 cups of flour

Dissolve yeast in warm water in large mixing bowl. Stir in potatoes, sugar, shortening, eggs, salt, and 3 cups of the flour. Beat until smooth. Mix in enough of the remaining flour to make dough easy to handle.

Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Dough will start to pull apart and get stretchy.

Place dough in greased bowl; turned greased side up. Cover bowl tightly;

Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, but no longer than 5 days.
Dough will rise in refrigerator, so make sure to put dough in a bowl at least twice it's size.

Punch dough down; divide into 4 equal parts. Use 1/4 of the dough mixture for a normal pan of rolls.
