Butterhorn Rolls

In a small saucepan, combine shortening and milk.

Heat until shortening is melted; set aside to cool. Dissolve the yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in the warm water. Beat the eggs, 1/2 cup sugar and salt together. In a large bowl, combine the milk mixture, yeast mixture and egg mixture. Sift the flour and baking powder together, and add to the wet mixture; stir until combined, then cover and refrigerate overnight.

Divide dough into fourths, and roll out on a floured surface.

Spread surface with the soft butter.

Cut dough into triangles, and roll up from larger to small end.

Place rolls on a baking sheet, and allow to rise for 3 to 4 hours. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)

Bake in a preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
