I made these in my Kitchen Aid mixer. I proofed the yeast in the mixer bowl with the warm liquids and the sugar for ten minutes, then I added the rest of the ingredients. I did use melted butter instead of shortening, only because I didn't have shortening on hand. This needed almost a full cup of flour more than the recipe asked for to form a ball. I kneaded it with my dough hook for five minutes, then set it in a greased bowl for the first rise. Once it doubled, I kneaded the dough a little, cut it in half, then formed half of the dough into 1/4 cup sized rolls and set them in a greased cast iron skillet (I froze the other half of dough for later). I didn't glaze the rolls with egg and water, I used two tablespoons of melted butter. Once the rolls doubled, I baked them in a 350* oven for 20 minutes. One of the BEST roll recipes I've ever made. It's very rich and has a wonderful flavor. Flaky, soft and bakery quality. My husband ate three with his chili--and these rolls are HUGE. I'll make this recipe again.

This recipe makes a wonderful versatile roll for any meal. It doesn’t have a lot of flavor but does have great texture and are quick to prepare as they only have one rise. I used butter instead of the shortening for added richness. A very pretty dinner roll.

Probably should have let them rise longer. They tasted more like biscuits.

These were pretty good. They are a little sweeter than I had hoped. My kids liked them. The recipe works fine as written, but I've tasted better rolls and will probably keep looking for the ultimate dinner roll recipe.

This recipe is awesome! I did some modification. I took the yeast and water, and added sugar and let sit until frothy, then added it to the ingredients. I also made yeast rolls in muffin pans and it turns out fantastic!!! I divided the dough into 12 sections and patted each into the muffin cups, then took a fork and made criss-cross patterns on top. I didn't use the egg wash, as these make absolutely the perfect yeast rolls with little to no effort!!!! Thank you for posting this recipe!!!!

Very good. Easy. Made some healthy changes and still turned out great- used butter & canola oil instead of shortening, used 4 egg whites instead of 2 eggs, used 1 c wheat flour and a little wheat germ.

Delicious! Makes great 'toast' the next morning. My kids couldn't stay out of the leftovers. Will definitely make again.
