Mrs. Ratje's Rolls
1 pkg. dry yeast
2 C plus 2 T lukewarm water
2 beaten eggs
1/2 C vegetabel oil
1/2 C sugar
1 t salt
4 C all-purpose flour
Dissolve yeast in water. Add eggs, oil, sugar and salt. Blend well, then add
2 cups flour. Beat until smooth, then beat in 2 more cups flour. Continue beating
until very smooth. (This will give your hand mixer quite a workout!) Place in
greased bowl. Cover
and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, divide dough in half. The dough will
be VERY sticky. You will have to use lots of flour. Roll each half into a 16
inch circle. Cut into 16 small "pie" shapes. Roll each from big end
to little end--like a croissant. Let rise approximately 3 hours on greased pan.
Bake at 375 degrees until done, about 12 to 15 minutes. Can be made very early
in the morning for a late evening meal if pressed for time.
Yield: 32 rolls
This, and almost any bread recipe, can be put in your bread machine on the dough
cycle. Run it on the dough cycle, then refrigerate (in a bowl--it will be too
big for the bread machine pan) overnight.
