Potato Rolls

Ingredients:
1 pkg. yeast in
1/ 2 cup warm water
3/4 cup shortening
½ cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup mashed spuds
1 cup scalded milk
5 cups flour
1 tsp salt

Directions:
Mash the spuds ahead of time. Put the yeast in the warm water with a little sugar and set to rise about 5 minutes. Scald the milk and let it cool down so you don't kill the yeast. Mix the sugar and shortening and salt in the bowl, add the milk then put in about a cup of the flour. Then add the yeast and the beaten eggs. Then add the spuds. Then you add the flour until you can work the dough. Knead it until smooth by adding some flour. Then put it in a greased bowl for about 45 minutes. Then punch it down and form the rolls-into three balls. Dab each ball with butter and put in muffin tin. Let them rise until doubled. Bake at 375 for about 15-20 minutes.
