Yeast Hot Rolls 
Makes 3-1/2 dozen  

3 tablespoons instant potato flakes
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons active dry yeast
6 to 6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup boiling water
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
                   
1. Pour the boiling water over the instant mashed
   potatoes and set aside. Scald the milk with the oil and
   1/2 cup of the sugar. Add The 1/2 cup very warm water
   and the teaspoon sugar to the yeast and set aside. 
2. Add the potatoes to the milk mixture. Start adding the
   flour, then eggs, one at a time, beating with a mixer or
   dough hooks. Add yeast mixture and all but 1 cup of the
   remaining flour and salt. 
3. Use the reserved 1 cup of flour for kneading. Knead the
   dough for about 5 minutes on a floured board. Place the
   dough in a large greased bowl, being sure to grease top
   of dough also. Cover dough with plastic wrap then with
   a double piece of foil. Refrigerate or let rise once and
   make into rolls. If made at night knead down dough
   before going to bed. 
4. Once dough has risen once, punch down and shape into
   about 3 1/2 dozen rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased
   baking dish and bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for
   about 15 to 20 mins.
