Ingredients:  
2 CUPS MILK
⅓ CUP CORN MEAL
½ CUP SHORTENING
½ CUP SUGAR
2 TSP SALT
1 PKG YEAST
¼ CUP WARM WATER (115º)
2 WELL BEATEN EGGS
4 CUPS FLOUR (ABOUT)
Directions:
Directions:
In medium saucepan, combine milk, cornmeal, shortening, sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat until thick. Let cool to 115º. ( I pour it into a glass bowl so it will cool faster and stir it often.) In a very large bowl, dissolve yeast in ¼ cup 110º water Add to cooled mixture. Stir well. Add eggs and whisk in. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.


Add flour a quarter cup at a time. Dough will be soft and sticky. Turn out onto well floured board. Knead with pastry scraper (can’t use your hands) for about 10 minutes. Do not add too much flour. The dough will be quite soft but the stickiness should be all but gone.. Return to oiled bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in size.


Spray cookie sheets with non-stick spray. Turn out dough and divide in four parts. Let rest 10 minutes then roll each into circle. Brush with adequate melted butter. Cut in twelfths and roll triangles into crescent rolls. Cover with towel and let rise until doubled in size. While rolls are rising, preheat oven to 375º. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Remove to cooling rack.
