Mom's Crescent Rolls

Ingredients:

3 TBS dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 heaping tsp sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup powdered milk
10-11 cups flour
1 TBS salt
3 cups warm water
4 eggs
1 cup oil

Directions:

Dissolve yeast and tsp of sugar in 1 cup warm water. Allow it to stand until yeast is bubbly. If using a hand mixer, sift 6 cups flour and salt into a large bowl. Blend in a blender the 3 cups of water and the powdered milk. Make a well in center of flour and pour in the milk, yeast mix, eggs, and oil. Mix until smooth and well mixed.

Slowly add remaining flour until right consistency - smooth, some bounce but still a little sticky. You can also put it all in a Bosch. Be careful to never add too much flour. Allow dough to rise one hour or until doubled, and cover with a towel.

Turn out onto oiled counter. Kneed once or twice. Roll into a circle and use pizza-cutter to cut across diameter, making triangles. Roll into crescents. Dip or brush with melted butter and place on a greased cookie sheet. Allow to rise until almost double in size.

Bake at 375º for about 10-15 minutes. (Can also freeze after placing on a cookie sheet. To cook, place frozen rolls on the cookie sheet and lite rise/thaw for 3 hours and then cook.)
