3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup shortening

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

3 packages quick-rising yeast

1/2 warm water

2 eggs

4 1/2 cup flour

In a separate bowl, add the yeast to the warm water, set aside. Warm milk to almost a boil, add in the shortening, stir to melt. Add the salt, sugar and eggs. Mix with hand mixer. Add 2 cups of flour. Mix again and add the warm water/yeast mixture. Gradually stir in 2 more cups of flour. Place on evenly floured board and knead to soft yet pliable dough. Add more flour if dough is not firm enough. Place back in bowl and allow to rise to double.

When rise is finished, punch down and shape into desired shapes. For moldy effect, place some small amount of green food coloring in some spots where mold might grow. Set aside to rise again. When rolls are double, bake in 350-degree oven, bake until golden brown.
