Cindy's Rolls

I don't know who Cindy is but I love her rolls! My mom has been making these rolls my whole life. They are so good when used for leftover turkey sandwiches too!


1/2 package yeast or 1 1/2 tsp.
1/4 cup lukewarm water
2 cups milk
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
flour

Dissolve yeast in large bowl. Scald milk then add shortening and sugar, cool. Add flour until cake like batter (about 2 cups). Set aside to rise until doubled about two hours. When doubled put salt, baking powder, and soda. Stir then add flour until firm but not stiff. Refrigerate (I make the day before). Form rolls and allow to rise one hour. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.
