Grandma Verna Taylor’s Crescent Rolls

Christi Jensen

Remember to start these the night before you want to eat them! The dough rises for 2 hours and then goes into the fridge overnight. So worth it!


Combine and let rest five minutes then add to other ingredients:

2 Tbsp. yeast

2 Tbsp. sugar

2 cups water (110 degrees if using a thermometer)


Mix:

1 cup butter (melted)

1 cup sugar

6 eggs, beaten

1 ½ tsp. salt

8 cups flour


Mix all ingredients. Place in large Tupperware bowl that is lightly greased with shortening. Let raise 2 hours. Mix down with a wooden spoon. Put bowl in fridge and leave overnight. The next day, separate dough into 4 equal parts. Set aside. Roll first ball as large as possible – large pizza size about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 12 pieces (like you would cut a pizza). Roll up. Place on buttered cookie sheet and brush roll with melted butter. Let rise 3-4 hours. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes (depending on the oven, you might want to take it down to 375 degrees). Brush with butter as soon as you take them out of the oven. Gige Matheney says you can add cinnamon sugar to these and serve as cinnamon rolls in the morning!!
