Icebox Rolls Recipe.

Ingredients:

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
2-1/2 cups water, divided
1/2 cup shortening
2 large eggs, beaten
1-1/2 TSPs salt
1/2 cup sugar
8-1/2 to 9 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup butter, melted

Recipe Instructions:

Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (110 Degrees -115 Degrees ).
In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup boiling water and shortening.
Add remaining (room-temperature) water, eggs, salt, sugar and yeast mixture.
Stir in 1 cup of flour at a time, mixing well after each addition, until a soft dough forms.
Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough into nine portions.
Divide and shape each portion into 12 balls.
Place 3 balls in each cup of 3 greased muffin tins.
Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375 Degrees.
Brush rolls with half of melted butter; bake until golden brown, 15-20 minutes.
Remove from oven; brush with remaining butter.
