Instructions: Combine milk, potatoes, shortening, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Let stand until lukewarm. Add yeast in 1/2 cup lukewarm water with 1 teaspoon sugar. Add eggs. Add 1 1/2 cup flour and beat well. Continue adding flour to make stiff dough.

Turn out on board and knead thoroughly. Return to a greased mixing bowl, grease top of dough. Cover and let rise 2 hours (or you can place in an air tight container and place in the refrigerator overnight.)

Shape in balls, roll in melted butter, and place in pan. Let rise until pan is full, 30 minutes - 1 hour. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes.
