After I discovered this recipe, it became a mainstay for me. I make the dough ahead of time when company is coming, and I try to keep some in the refrigerator to make for "hay hands" on our cattle ranch. Leftover mashed potatoes are almost sure to go into these rolls. —Jeanette McKinney, Belleview, Missouri

I had a little bit of trouble at the end when I realized I hadn't added the yeast because the recipe didn't tell me too. I added the yeast after adding all the "remaining water" and 2 cups of flour. It looked like thin cream soup!I added the 4 more cups of flour but it still wasn't thick enough to really form into a ball so I ended up adding a 1/2 cup flour at a time until it did form a ball. At the point when it was time to form balls my dough was very tacky so I dusted the balls in flour as I was rolling them. I added a few things at this point some I left pain, some I added minced garlic and herbs and the rest I sprinkled sesame seeds on.I mixed in 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese in with the mashed potatoes.The end result was good.

The directions are awful, but I muddled through, added the water with the two cups of flour and the rolls turned out great. I didn't need all of the water anyways...

The recipe never indicates to add the yeast. I added when adding sugar and other ingredients, it failed.

Well, I was just doing some logical extrapolation...er...figuringI can buy refrigerated pizza dough, to make pizzas, so, I would think that placing some dough in a greased plastic bag, or even easier, roll some dough in a little oil, mking sure it's well coated, and place in a bag in the fridge, with lots of room for expansion, and all you'd have to do is take it out, return it to room temp, shape into rolls, let rise, and bake. The same could be done freezing the dough, as I see the grocers also carry frozen bread dough. I don't think I'd want to keep any dough in the fridge longer than a day or two. ViolaB
