Mom's yellow rolls

By -
1 package active dry yeast (2 1/2 t.)
1/4 c. warm water
1 c. milk, scaled (to scald the milk, heat in a small saucepan until little bubbles form around the edges. DO NOT boil)
1/4 c. sugar
1/4 c. shortening
1 t. salt
3 1/2 c. flour
1 egg

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Soften yeast in warm water. Combine milk, sugar, shortening, and salt; cool to lukewarm. Add 1 1/2 c. flour; beat well. Beat in yeast and egg. (Add several drops of yellow food coloring to attain the distinctively yellow color of "moms" rolls). Gradually add remaining flour to form soft dough, beating well.

Place in greased bowl, turning once to grease surface. Cover and let rise until double (1-2 hours).
Shape into rolls (using mom's top secret method) and place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until double. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

Pour the olive oil into the bottom of whatever pan/platter you are using for the dip. 2. Dice the tomatoes and green onions and put them in the olive oil. 3. Crumble the feta on top of the tomatoes and green onions. 4. Sprinkle with the Greek Seasoning, about 3 tsp. (Patrice said she found the seasoning at Walmart. It is called Cavender...

Another dud. Then I made these. Finally, something that was as good as I hoped. These were amazing. They are a perfect fall treat. So stop wasting time on pinterest and go make these!
