RUBY'S MAMAW'S YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl sprinkle yeast into warm water. Stir until dissolved. Add butter, shortening, sugar and potatoes. Add cold water, salt, and enough flour to make a stiff dough. Turn dough into large greased bowl and refrigerate so it can rise (at least a couple of hours). To bake: Remove from refrigerator and shape into cloverleaf rolls (3 balls) with greased fingers (don't be stingy with the butter). Place in muffin tins and allow to rise again; if it's too cold in the house, cover with a warm dish towel. Bake 425 degrees about 20 minutes.

GRANDMA'S YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• Dissolve 1 tablespoon of sugar into the water in a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over the water; let stand 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. Meanwhile, whisk the flour, the remaining sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Once the yeast has foamed, stir the melted lard into the yeast, then stir the yeast mixture into the flour until a sticky dough forms.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. You may need to add additional flour to keep the dough from sticking. Once elastic, cover the dough with the mixing bowl, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with lard.
• Cut the dough into three equal sections, then cut each section into 8 pieces. Form into balls and place into the prepared baking dish in 6 rows of 4. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops of the rolls are golden brown and the bottoms sound hollow when tapped, about 1 hour. Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before eating.

MAMAW PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Bake your pie shells according to package directions and let them cool completely.
• While your pie shells are baking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium and add the pecans and coconut. Toast your coconut and pecans in the butter until they become golden brown (roughly 10 minutes). Keep stirring constantly -- these can scorch easily. Set them aside to let them cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk together until creamy. Fold in your whipped topping by hand -- be careful not to "break it down" too much, but still get it incorporated nicely (it's such a fine line, isn't it?).
• Have your baked and cooled pie shells ready to fill -- it's time to start layering!
• Start by using 1/2 of your cream cheese mixture and divide that evenly between the two pie shells (so, technically, each pie will get 1/4 of the mixture).
• Drizzle 1/4 of your caramel sauce over the cream cheese mixture on each pie, use 1/4 per pie and 1/2 the jar total for this layer.
• Sprinkle 1/4 of the pecan/coconut mixture over the caramel on each pie. Again, use 1/2 of the mixture total.
• Repeat the layers, using the remaining ingredients. Place pies in the freezer overnight.
• You'll pull them out about about 20-30 minutes before serving to let them thaw a bit. You can store them in your freezer for about a month. I double wrap mine in Press-N-Seal and then add an additional layer of foil on top of that, to prevent any freezer burn.

MAMAW'S ROLLS RECIPE

Steps:

• 1. Mix the water, sugar, and yeast together in a small bowl or measuring glass. 2. In a large bowl mix together flour and salt. 3. Add in vegetable oil and start to mix. 4. Pour in dissolved yeast mixture and stir with your hands (They're gonna get messy). 5. Once it forms a ball dump onto a floured counter and knead. 6. Knead dough until it becomes smooth. 7. You may need to add a tablespoon or two more of water if the dough is too dry. 8. Once well-combined place dough in a large oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth. 9. Place in a warm area of the house to rise for about an hour until the dough has doubled in size (I use my laundry room with the dryer running). 10. Once doubled if you poke it with your finger it shouldn't push back out. 11. Punch down dough. 12. To form even balls for your rolls split the dough in half then half each of those in half and so on and so on until you have 32 balls*. 13. Form rolls and place in a grease circular pie plate 7 around and one in a center. (I use disposable pan so I can freeze a lot). 14. Place covered in a warm place and allow to rise again for about an hour 15. Preheat oven to 350 degrees 16. Brush melted butter on the tops of the risen rolls Eating right away: 1. Place in the oven and bake for 20 min or until golden brown Freeze directions: 1. Only bake for 10 to 15 minutes until set but not golden brown yet. 2. Allow to cool completely. 3. Cover with foil and place into a gallon sized freezer bag. 4. To bake later allow to defrost completely. 5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 6. Place in the oven and bake for 10-20 minutes until golden brown. Note: *If making Mamaw sized rolls divide dough into 16 even rolls and follow all remaining directions.

MEMAW'S ROLLS

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, stir in yeast and 1 cup of warm water until the yeast dissolves. Add the other cup of water.
• Add shortning, sugar and salt. Stir vigorously and mash the lumps of shortning against the side of the bowl as you sift in the flour one cup at a time.
• Stir until the dough is firm.
• Smooth down and cover with cloth or lid - let rise until double in size ( about 1-1/2-2 hours). DO NOT GET TOO WARM OR SIT ON A HOT STOVE TOP.(I turn my oven on 250 for ONE minute, then turn it OFF -- and let them rise in the warm oven).
• When dough has doubled dump out onto a floured board or coutertop, knead lightly until you can cut or pinch into rolls.
• Place in a greased pan and let rise again, approximately 1-1/2 - 2 hours. Cook until browned, brush with butter and eat.

QUICK YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar, and hot water. Allow to cool until lukewarm, and mix in the yeast until dissolved. Mix in the egg, salt, and flour. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size.
• Grease 8 muffin cups. Divide the dough into the prepared muffin cups, and allow to rise again until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

CLASSIC YEAST DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, mix milk, yeast, butter, sugar, egg, and salt. If you don't have a stand mixer, mix vigorously with a wooden spoon or hand mixer. Add in flour 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well between each addition. Stop adding flour when it is no longer sticky. Use your mixer's dough hook attachment for 10 minutes or knead by hand. Place in a buttered bowl and let rise in a warm spot until doubled. This can take a few hours at room temperature, but it can go faster if you turn the oven to 200, turn it off, and then place the bowl in the oven (make sure it's turned off!) After dough has risen, punch down gently and divide into 12 equal pieces. Form the dough pieces into a roll. Place rolls in a greased 9×13 glass dish. Let rise until doubled (again, using the oven trick can make it go faster). Once rolls have risen, bake at 375F for 18-25 minutes. Brush with butter.
