Rolls - Courtney Homer

Ingredients:
4 cups milk
1 cube butter
3 Tbsp yeast
1 cup sugar
2 tsp salt
2 cups potato flakes
8-9 cups flour
4 eggs

Directions:
Scald milk. Pour into bowl of kitchen aid and add the butter. Let milk cool until it is warm and won't kill the yeast. (Alternatively - I microwave milk and butter in a microwave bowl in 1-minute increments, stirring each minute, until the butter is about melted. Then pour it into the bowl of the kitchen aid and let the butter melt and milk cool).

Add yeast, sugar, and salt. Let yeast dissolve. Then add potato flakes and 4 cups flour. Mix with dough hook. Then add eggs and 4-5 more cups flour (until the dough pulls away from the edge of the bowl. Dough should still be sticky or the rolls will be dry). Cover with a towel and let rise about 40 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350. Spray counter, hands, and rolling pin with cooking spray. Divide dough into 4 parts. Take one quarter of dough and form into a ball. Roll out into a circle and then cut into triangles with pizza cutter. Roll up triangles into crescents and place on greased cookie sheets (each quarter should make about 12). Repeat until you have used up all the dough. Let rise until double. Then bake 12-15 minutes or until light brown.

NOTE: This makes a ton of dough and makes about 4 dozen rolls. You can easy halve the recipe, though.
