3 pkgs. dry yeast
1/2 c. lukewarm water
3 c. milk
1 c. sugar
1 c. lard
8 egg yolks
3-4 tsp. salt
1 c. potato flakes
Flour

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Heat milk, then add potato flakes to the milk. In large bowl, cream sugar and lard; add egg yolks and beat well. Beat in salt. When milk mixture has cooled to lukewarm, add to sugar and lard. Beat well, then start adding flour. When you have a gooey mess, add yeast mixture. Continue adding flour until a soft dough is formed. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Cover with a greased bowl and let it rest 10 minutes. Knead dough until it is smooth and velvety. Cover and let rise until it doubles in bulk. Punch dough down. Let rest a few minutes, then form into rolls. Bake dough at 375 degrees or 400 degrees, depending upon the size of rolls or coffee cake. Use the lower temperature for larger items. Medium size rolls will take 18-20 minutes. Coffee cake may take up to 35-40 minutes.
