Butter Horns
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup melted margarine
- 1/2 cup melted Crisco
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 4 cups hot water
- 4 tablespoons fast rising yeast
- 13 cups flour
- I use my Bosch mixer with dough hooks to make these, but you can make them by hand as well.
- Into the mixing bowl put yeast, sugar and hot water.
- Melt margarine and crisco and add to mixing bowl.
- Add about 4 cups of flour, then the eggs and salt.
- Add the remaining flour until dough is clean from the sides of the bowl.
- This may differ and not necessarily be 9 cups, it could be less or maybe more.
- Let the mixer knead the dough a couple of minutes.
- Place dough in large greased bowl (tupperware fix-n-mix) and cover.
- Then let rise about 20-30 minutes or till lid of tupperware pops off.
- Punch down.
- Preheat oven to 400 deg F.
- Roll dough into about 9" circles, 1/3 inch thick.
- Cut each circle into 10- 12 wedge-shaped pieces.
- (Wide end should be about 2 1/2- 3 inches wide).
- Roll up each wedge, starting at wide end and rolling to the point.
- Place on greased pan and finish doing this to all the dough.
- Let rise, covered with a clean teatowel and a plastic sheet on top of the towel (like a heavy plastic bag cut open).
- The plastic keeps the rolls from drying out as they are rising.
- Bake at 400 deg F for about 8- 10 minutes or until golden in color.
