Ingredients

1 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup margarine (1/2 stick)
1/2 cup warm water
2 (1/4 ounce) packages yeast or (1/4 ounce) packages compressed yeast cake
2 eggs, beaten
5 1/4 cups unsifted flour

Directions

1

Scald milk; stir in sugar, salt and margarine. Cool to lukewarm.
2

Measure warm water into large warm bowl. Sprinkle or crumble in yeast; stir until dissolved.
3

Add lukewarm milk mixture, eggs and 2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough.
4

Turn out onto lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
5

Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes.
6

Punch down. Turn out on lightly floured board. Proceed according to directions for any shape. [Grandma means like crescent, cloverleaf, etc. They will need to rise again after shaped, probably another 30 minutes. I would guess that they should be baked at about 400 F for around 15 minutes.].
