The Duggar Family's Butterhorns

1/2 c. shortening or butter

1/2 c. sugar

1 t. salt

2 pkg. Yeast (or 4.5 t.)

2 c. flour

Combine first 5 ingredients in large bowl & cut with pastry cutter.

Slowly add:

3 c. flour.

Cover. Let Rise 20 min. in warm oven (or warm place). Pour onto floured surface. Knead. Flatten with hands into two large pizza shapes. Cut each with pizza cutter or knife into 16 slices. Roll up from wide end to point. Place on 2 greased cookie sheets leaving space for rolls to double in size. You can shape like crescents or lay on side where swirl shows. Cover. Let rise in warm (not hot) oven or warm place at least 20 min. Remove from oven. Preheat oven. Preheat oven to 375. Bake 15-20 min. depending on how dark you prefer.

*I brush with melted butter before popping in the oven. These rolls are wonderful because they only take about an hour instead of 3 or 4 hours and they are really tasty! These aren't very healthy but they are tasty and fun to make for a treat once in a while!
