Ingredients

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
2-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
7 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup water; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar. Add egg, salt, 4 cups flour, yeast mixture and remaining water; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining water; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
Punch dough down and divide into thirds; shape each portion into 12 rolls in desired shape. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Bake at 400° for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned.
