Yeast Bread (German Recipe I am told) image

I was given this recipe by a friend that has passed away. I asked her for the recipe and she told me it was given to her by a lady that had it handed down to her from her German Heritage. You can also make dinner rolls out of this same recipe. Just shape the dough into the size of a golf ball (1-1 1/2 inch size). Then place on a cookie sheet to rise and bake.
