Potato Rolls

My granny used to make potato rolls routinely and I loved them.  This recipe comes from Taste of Home and eating these potato rolls takes me back to Granny's dinner table!


2 pkgs. yeast
1 1/3 c. warm water (110-115 degrees) divided
2/3 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 c. chortening
1 c. mashed potatoes
6 - 6 1/2 c. flour


In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 2/3 c. water.  In large bow, cream sugar and shortening (light and fluffy).  Add eggs, potatoes, salt, yeast mixture, nest of water and 2 c. flour.  Beat until smooth.  Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.  Do not knead.  Shape into a ball.  Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.  Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).  Punch dough down.  Divide into thirds.  Shape each third into 15 balls and arrange in 3 greased 9 inch round baking pans.  Cover and let rise until doubled (about 30 minutes).  Bake at 374 degrees at 20-25 minutes.
