1 pkg. yeast, dissolved in 1/2 c. warm water
1 c. mashed potatoes
1 c. sugar
3 tsp. salt
1 c. shortening
1 qt. scalded milk (let cool)
4 tsp. baking powder
About 11 c. flour

Mix together all ingredients, except shortening and flour. Let stand for 2 hours. Then add shortening and flour for a soft dough. Let rise and shape into rolls or store in refrigerator until ready to use.

NOTE: If shortening is added before flour it will slightly retard the action of they east. When kneaded, shape and place in pan and let rise to double in bulk, about 2 hours. Bake 15 to 20 minutes at 375 degrees.
