Mother Marilyn's Dinner Rolls

 

source

These dinner rolls are very special to us.  They were my Grandmother's recipe and a Thanksgiving essential in our home.  Although they are delicious every single time, they were the most delicious when she made them.  Miss you Grandma Marilyn!

{What you need}

2/3 cup powdered milk

1 cup margarine

3 tablespoons dry yeast

2 cup boiling water

10-12 cups white flour

1 cup sugar

1 cup warm water

6 eggs, beaten

1 tbs salt

In a large bowl combine powdered milk, sugar, margarine and boiling water.  Soften yeas in 1 cup warm water.  Add beaten eggs to milk mixture, then add yeast water.  Sift enough flour and salt into the milk mixture to make a soft dough, making sure it is still a little sticky.  Beat thoroughly.  Turn out onto floured board and knead enough flour in to make a soft, smooth dough (still keeping it a little tacky).  Place in greased bowl, greasing the top of the dough as well.  Cover and rise until double in bulk, about 40 minutes.  Shape as desired (we fold them as pictured above), let rise an additional 40 minutes, and bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
