Cinnamon Rolls

Dissolve 2 Tbs. yeast in 1/2 c. warm water and 1 Tbs. sugar.
This is the most fool-proof soft dough I have ever found.

Scald 1 c. milk
add 1/3 c. shortening
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. salt
2 eggs (beaten)
Let cool slightly then add yeast mixture and 4 heaping cups flour. Can be stored in refrigerator overnight if desired.

Let rise, roll out, spread with soft butter, cinnamon, and sugar. Roll up and cut in 12 slices. Let raise on cookie sheet. Bake 400 for 10-15 min. Frost. I use a caramel icing.
