Miracle Potato Rolls
2/3 cup margarine
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed potatoes, unseasoned
2 cups hot potato water, drained from cooked
potatoes
1 package dry yeast
2 eggs, beaten
7 cups all-purpose flour
Mix together the margarine, sugar, salt, mashed
potatoes and hot potato water. Blend well and cool mixture to lukewarm (about
105 degrees). Add yeast, eggs and enough flour to form a soft dough. Place
mixture in a well-greased large bowl; cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
You can now make rolls. Roll out dough on a
floured surface and shape into your favorite variety of rolls. (Punch down
dough, every 8 to 10 hours if there is dough left over in the refrigerator. You
can use this dough as needed.) This dough works especially well when shaped
into crescents.
Place rolls on a greased baking sheet, and no
additional rising is necessary. Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven for 10
minutes or until light golden brown.
Yield: 4 dozen dinner rolls.
