4 3/4 cup white flour
1/3 cup shortening (Crisco)
1/3 cup powdered milk
1/3 cup sugar
2 tsp salt
1 3/4 cup water (room temperature)
2 tbsp yeast (instant)
Mix the first 5 ingredients. In a heavy duty mixer with dough hook, add the water and the dry ingredients all at once. Begin mixing; when the mixture incorporates most of the water, add the dry yeast. Beat at a medium speed for 10 minutes. Dough should be in a ball and mixer will be clean.
Set in a lightly greased bowl in a warm place to rise (about 40 minutes). When the dough size has doubled, punch down and pinch into 1 1/2-ounce rolls. When bread has risen a second time, bake 23 to 28 minutes at 350 degrees). Pat butter on rolls when still warm.
