June's Hot Rolls

3 pkgs dry yeast
2 eggs, beaten
2 ½ cups warm water
2 ½ tsp salt
¾ cup shortening
8 ½ cups flour
¾ cup sugar

Mix yeast with warm water. Add shortening, sugar, eggs, and salt. Add flour (you can put first 4 cups in and use mixer - much easier). Let rise; pinch off muffins and let rise again. Bake at 400º until brown. You can make cinnamon rolls or donuts out of this dough.

To refrigerate; Let rise once and punch down. Refrigerate, then set out 1 hour. Make rolls and let rise, then bake.
