INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup Crisco
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 8 cups flour
- 1 cup mashed potatoes (can use instant)
- 1 cup potato water or water
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 2 packages yeast
DIRECTIONS
- Mix Crisco, sugar, salt and eggs. Then add mashed potatoes and potato water. Beat again.
- Add 4 cups of flour, then add 1 cup lukewarm water in which yeast has been dissolved.
- Add 4 more cups of flour, mix and refrigerate overnight.
- Notes: I usually use the dough immediately. It's a very soft dough. I mix mine in my mixer with a dough hook. If I knead it by hand, I have to add more flour to keep it from sticking to the counter. I add as little as possible so the dough doesn't get dry.
- This recipe also works for rolls and horns.
