No-Knead to Roll Dinner Rolls

If you don't feel like kneading dough, and you don't have the energy to roll out dough and cut individual rolls this is the recipe for you. It is so easy. You can cut this recipe in half if you don't want to make quite so many rolls.

4 tablespoons yeast
1/2 cup warm water
2 cups skim milk
1 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
4 eggs, slightly beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole-wheat flour

1. Dissolve yeast in warm water and allow to rise for about 5 minutes.

2. Heat milk until it almost boils. Remove from heat and combine with other all other ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the yeast and flour last.

3. Place dough in a greased mixing bowl. Allow to rise one hour. Punch down dough after one hour.

4. Drop by tablespoons into greased muffin tins, filling each about 3/4 full. Let rise one hour.

5. Bake at 400 for about 8 minutes or until lightly browned. When I made the recipe it produced 24 regular sized rolls and 18 mini-muffins.
