Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2/3 C shortening
2/3 C sugar
heaping Tbl. of salt
2/3 C mashed potatoes (approx.)
1/4 C warm water
1 & 3/4 C scalded milk (has skin on top)
1 egg
1 pkg. yeast
6 or 7 C flour (can be sifted or not)

Steps:

Combine shortening, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl with the hot mashed potatoes. Scald milk and add. Cool to luke-warm. Dissolve yeast in 1/4 C water and add to mixture. Add egg and mix. Begin adding flour until dough is stiff (dough leaves the edges of the bowl. Cover with damp cloth and place somewhere warm to rise to double in size (I usually leave it overnight). Punch down and let it rise a 2nd time. Work dough down on floured cutting board. You can use right away or place in the refrigerator to use later. Roll out dough to about 1/2 inch in height. Cut rolls using a biscuit cutter or glass (2 1/4 in). If making cinnamon rolls, roll out dough into an oval, sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Starting at one end, roll dough up into a log. Cut rolls about 1/2 inch wide. Place rolls or cinnamon rolls into greased roll pans, and let rise. Bake rolls at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips for Making Ice Box Rolls:

Use very cold butter and shortening. This will help to keep the dough flaky and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
Work the dough quickly and gently. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and cutting it. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and countertop.
If the dough is too sticky to work with, you can add a little more flour. However, be careful not to add too much flour, as this will make the dough tough.
Bake the rolls at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will help to create a golden brown crust and prevent the rolls from drying out.

Conclusion:

Ice box rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning, you can have a batch of ice box rolls ready to bake in no time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give ice box rolls a try. You won't be disappointed!
