Dinner Rolls

from Mary

These were always a staple at any family gathering. They are super yummy. I loved making these with my grandmother growing up. And they disappeared quickly. They're perfect for those afternoon Turkey sandwiches on Thanksgiving, too.

In bowl:
1 cup warm water
4 Tbsp yeast

In bosch mixer bowl:
2 1/2 cups water
1 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp salt
3 eggs, beaten
10 1/2 cups flour
Put in yeast mixture

Mix in bosch for 10 minutes. Let rise once, roll out. Place on cookie sheet. Using pastry brush, brush melted butter on each roll and fold over. Use clean kitchen scissors and clip creases on both sides. This helps the rolls to stay folded over. Bake at 350 for 20 to 30 minutes. Makes 8 dozen.

Note: If you don't want Parker-style (folded over) rolls, just don't fold them over. They are great either way.
