ingredients

4 ¹⁄₂ - 5 cups all-purpose flour
1 (1 tablespoon) package active dry yeast
1 cup milk
¹⁄₃ cup sugar
¹⁄₃ 1/3 cup margarine or 1/3 cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs

directions

In a large bowl stir together 2 cups of the flour and the yeast.
In a small saucepan heat and stir milk, sugar, butter, and salt just until warm (120 degrees) and butter almost melts; add to flour mixture along with eggs.
Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 30 sec, scraping sides of bowl constantly.
Beat on high speed 3 minute. Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total).
Shape dough into a ball.
Place in a greased bowl, turn once.
Cover, let rise in a warm place until double 1 hour.
Punch dough down and turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
Divide dough in half.
Cover, let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, depending on what shape of roll you want to make, lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan, baking sheets.
Shape the dough into 24 balls or desired rolls and place in prepared baking pan sheets.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Bake for 15 min or until golden.
Immediately remove rolls from pans.
Cool on wire racks.
