Directions:
In bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Measure flour. Add milk, sugar, salt, shortening, and half of flour to yeast. Mix with spoon until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to handle easily. Turn onto lightly floured board, knead until smooth (15 min.). Roll around in greased bowl, bring greased side up. Cover with cloth. Let rise in warm place (85º) for about 1-1/2 hours. If kitchen is cool, place dough on a rack over a bowl of hot water and cover completely with a towel. Punch down and let rise again until almost double, about 30 minutes. Roll dough in oblong 15x9-inch size. Spread with two tablespoons softened butter and sprinkle with mixture of 1/2 cup sugar and two teaspoons cinnamon. Roll up tightly, beginning at wide side. Seal well by pinching edges of roll together. Even up roll by stretching slightly. Cut roll into 1-inch slices. Place in greased 13x9-inch pan or on cookie sheets. Cover and let rise until double, about 35-40 minutes. Heat oven to 375º. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Frost while warm with white icing. Makes 1-1/2 dozen rolls.
ICING: Sift a little powdered sugar into bowl and moisten with cream or milk to spreading consistency. Add flavoring and spread over slightly warm rolls.

* lukewarm milk-scald milk, then cool to lukewarm to destroy enzymes which make dough sticky and hard to handle.º
