Home made Crescent Rolls

Most of the time I just buy Crescent Rolls or the Crescent Roll Dough and make them that way. Sometimes it would be nice to make these babies from scratch- probably less expensive too!

1 1/2 cups scalded milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 shortening
1 teaspoon of salt

Set aside to cool
Dissolve 2 tablespoons yeast in 1/2 cup of lukewarm water.
Add 2 eggs to the milk mixture, yeast and 6 cups of flour.
Refrigerate a couple of hours.
Roll into a circle and cut into 12 pieces of pie. Roll into crescent shapes.

Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
