2 cups scalded milk
1 cup mashed potato's

Okay now put shortening in mixing bowl, pour scalded milk over and let cool to luke warm
Add eggs, sugar, slat, mashed potato's, and four cups of flour. beat all together until smooth.
Then add yeast and the rest of the flour.
Mix tell soft sticky ball, put in a big bowl, spray it first with pam, cover with damp towel and let rise until double in size, divide dough in half, make it 1/4 to 1/2 in thick when rolling it out. melt a whole cube of butter and spread over the dough then add as much sugar and cinnamon as you want I like lots and I mean lots. Then roll it up hotdog way and then use a piece of string to cut it into 1 inch sections. place on cookie sheet and let rise again. about double in size.
Cook at 350 for 20 mins.

the last ones I made I only cooked or like 15 mins. so just watch them, you want them to be light golden brown when you take them out.

The frost them when they are almost cooled down. That way the frosting melts a little bit.
