GRANDMA'S YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. Cream margarine and shortening with sugar until light.
• 2. Add eggs slowly, blending well between each addition.
• 3. Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water (110 degrees; be sure that water is not too hot).
• 4. Sift together flour and salt.
• 5. Add half of the flour to the egg mixture and mix well.
• 6. Then add half of the milk to the egg mixture and mix well.
• 7. Add dissolved yeast.
• 8. Add remainder of milk and flour to make a soft dough.
• 9. Cover dough; let rest for 10 minutes.
• 10. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic.
• 11. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl large enough to hold the dough when doubled in size, turning once to grease the surface.
• 12. Cover; let rise in a warm place (90 F) until double in size (about 2 hours).
• 13. Fold dough over from 4 sides to knead lightly.
• 14. Cover and let rise again until double in size.
• 15. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape as desired.
• 16. To Make Cloverleaf Rolls: Shape dough into small balls. Three balls should half-fill a greased muffin pan.
• 17. Brush with melted margarine or butter.
• 18. Let rise in a warm place (90 F) until double in size (about 25 to 30 minutes). Do not let rolls "over-rise". Bake in a pre-heated 350 F oven until both the top and bottom of rolls are golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• 19. Remove from oven and brush top of rolls with melted margarine.
