Hi Cynthia,
Below is my grandmother’s refrigerator dough recipe. It is a very old recipe (my mother is over 90) and I can’t have family and/or friends over without making ‘the rolls’! The dough also makes a very good cinnamon roll foundation. The rolls are best finished up ‘pocketbook’ style. They need to be cut out with a cutter approximately 2” in diameter. They are not that labor intensive but it does take three days to make them properly. I learned this recipe at my grandmother’s knee and I’ve tried to write the instructions as clearly as possible. Any questions, please ask me! * Exported from MasterCook * REFRIGERATOR ROLLS * Recipe By : Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :2:00 Categories : Breads Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 cup shortening 3/4 cup sugar 1 cup water -- boiling 2 whole eggs 2 packages yeast 1 cup water -- warm 6 cups flour -- unsifted 1 teaspoon salt Cream together thoroughly the Crisco and sugar. Add the 1 cup boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved. Cool. Mix in the eggs. Dissolve the 2 pkgs. yeast in the warm water. Add to the above mixture. Mix in 6 cups unsifted flour and the salt. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Punch down (work slightly) and put in a greased bowl. Grease top of dough. Divide dough into two large Ziplock bags. Refrigerate. The next day, pat down dough and roll it out on a floured surface. Cut into circles (about 2 inches in diameter). Brush with melted butter and fold in half, pinching edges together. Place on a cookie sheet lined with foil. Brush the tops of the rolls with more melted butter. Cover and refrigerate. Approximately 3 hours before baking, pull the rolls out of the refrigerator and place, still covered, in a warm area to rise again. Preheat oven to approximately 400° F. Bake approximately 18-20 minutes. Sharon "In the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway." -- Mother Teresa "What we do for ourselves dies with us.
