1 pkg. active dry yeast
1/4 c. warm water

Sift flour, salt into mixing bowl. Cut in shortening. Dissolve yeast in water. Stir into flour mixture with sour cream, eggs, vanilla. Mix well with hand. Cover with damp cloth and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. Roll half of dough on sugared board into an oblong 8 x 16 inches. Fold ends toward center, ends overlapping. Sprinkle with sugar, roll again to same size. Repeat a third time. Roll about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into strips 1 x 4 inches (use a pizza cutter). Twist ends in opposite directions, stretching dough slightly. Put in shape of horseshoe on ungreased baking sheet, pressing ends to keep shape. Repeat with rest of dough. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
