Yeast Rolls

This recipe is absolutely scrumptious! Our family has already made it twice since we found the recipe in the Helotes Echo a couple of weeks ago.

What you need:

1 package yeast

¼ cup of warm water

1 cup of warm water

½ cup of sugar

1 teaspoon Salt

1 egg

1 tablespoon of Crisco

4 cups of flour

What you do:

Dissolve package of yeast in the ¼ cup warm water. Place in bowl. Dissolve sugar in the cup of warm water and add to yeast. Beat egg and add to yeast. Add Crisco, salt, and flour. Mix until dough is elastic. Place a towel over dough and place in a warm area to rise until double in size. Place dough on a floured surface and knead; pull small parts of dough and form into rolls. Place rolls in greased pan and bake 15-20 minutes until brown. As the rolls
begin to brown rub butter across the tops. Serve warm. :)
