Golden Potato Rolls

 

Ingredients

· 1 package active dry yeast

· 1/2 cup warm water

· 1 cup skim milk

· 3/4 cup margarine

· 1 1/4 cup mashed potatoes

· 1/2 cup sugar

· 2 teaspoons salt

· 8 to 8 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

· 2 eggs, beaten

 

Steps

1) Dissolve yeast in water; set aside.

2) In a saucepan, combine milk, margarine and potatoes; cook and stir over low heat just until margarine is melted. Remove from the heat and place in a large bowl with sugar, salt, 2 cups  of flour and the yeast mixture. Add eggs; mix well.

3) Cover loosely and allow to stand for 2 hours (the dough will be like a sponge).

4) Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough. Turn onto a floured
surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 minutes. 

5) Place in a bowl coated with nonstick cooking spray, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down and
divide into thirds.

6) On a floured surface, roll each portion into a 12-inch circle. Cut each circle into 12 pie –shaped wedges. Beginning at the wide end, roll up each wedge. Place rolls, point side down, 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with nonstick cooking spray.

7) Cover and let rise 30 minutes or until nearly doubled. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until golden.
