DIVAS CAN COOK GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add 1 1/4 cups flour.
• Add in the yeast and whisk until combined. Set aside.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, add milk, sugar, and shortening.
• Stir constantly until shortening has melted. Do not boil.(check the back of your yeast package to see how hot the liquid needs to be in order to activate the yeast. It is usually between 115-130 degrees F. Use a cooking thermometer).
• When the liquid reaches the recommended temperature, pour it into the flour mixture.
• Add in the egg.
• Beat on low speed for 1 minute and then on high speed for 3 minutes.
• Add in the salt and the remaining flour (2 cups).
• Use your hands or a rubber spatula to incorporate the rest of the flour until a soft dough forms.
• Grease a plastic bowl with vegetable oil and place the ball of dough into the bowl.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Remove from the refrigerator and punch down the dough with your fist to release the air.
• Spread a thin layer of melted butter on the bottom of a 9x13 pan.
• Take chunks of the dough and form it into desired shape.
• Dip the dough in a bowl of melted butter and place it in the pan.
• Repeat with the remaining dough. Keep the rolls close together.
• Cover the pan with a thin kitchen towel and let sit in a warm place for at least 1 -1 1/2 hours. The rolls will double in size.
• Bake for 10-14 minutes or until golden.
• Brush them with honey butter or herb butter if desired.

GRANDMA'S ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix the yeast into the warm water, then slowly add the buttermilk. Stir in 3 cups of flour - set to the side until double in size. Add the remaining ingredients -this is a fairly wet dough.
• Put the dough into a large greased bowl - make sure to grease the top of the dough (I use cooking spray). Place plastic over the top and set aside until double again. At this stage you can also place in the refrigerator until the next day.
• Place some flour on the counter and roll the dough out. Melt some butter in a shallow dish. Use a biscuit cutter and cut out the dough. Dip one side into melted butter, use knife to make a crease in the center, fold over pinching slightly and place on a greased jelly roll pan. Continue until pan is full - don't forget to leave a little room to let them rise. This recipe usually takes a large cookie sheet and a medium size sheet. Cover and let rise.
• Cook for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.

• Bake the rolls for 30 minutes (tenting lightly with aluminum foil after 20 minutes to prevent overbrowning).
• Rolls should be golden brown when done. Brush with additional melted butter.

NEVER FAIL YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

GRANDMA'S OLD-FASHIONED YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Stir in sugar and salt until you see foam rising. Add 3 cups flour and 3/4 cup shortening; mix with the dough hook until the mixture is the consistency of a thick pancake batter.
• Fill a pot with hot (not boiling) water.
• Remove the mixer bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and a towel. Place the bowl over the pot of hot water, making sure the bottom does not touch the water. Let rise until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Place the bowl back on your stand mixer and gradually mix in remaining 4 cups flour until dough is smooth and elastic; you may need to add up to 1 additional cup.
• Heavily grease two 9x13-inch pans with shortening.
• Divide dough into 24 balls. Place 12 balls into each of the prepared pans; cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour; balls will start out at about 1 1/2 inches in diameter but will rise and touch the sides of the pans.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush melted butter over top.
