Delish! Prep time includes rising and shaping. Begin checking after 20 minutes baking and cook til golden. This came from a book called Meat and Potatoes. Ingredients:
2/3 cup sugar |
2/3 cup shortening |
1 cup mashed potatoes |
2 1/2 teaspoons salt |
2 eggs |
2 (1/4 ounce) packages yeast |
1 1/3 cups water, divided (110 to 115 degrees) |
6 -6 1/2 cups plain flour (i use bread flour) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream sugar& shortening. 2. Add potatoes, salt and eggs. 3. In a small bowl dissolve yeast in 2/3 cups warm water; add to creamed mixture. 4. Beat in 2 cups flour & remaining water. 5. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. 6. Shape into ball. 7. (Don't knead) Put in greased bowl and turn to grease top. 8. Cover and rise 1 hour. 9. Punch down. 10. Divide into 3 parts. 11. Shape each part into 15 balls and put into 3 pans. 12. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes. 13. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes. 14. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks. 15. (I use instant mashed potatoes, prepared). 16. May be frozen. 17. I also make them earlier than needed and cook them only until firm so I can finish cooking them just before my meal. |
