1 c. milk
1/4 c. Shortening
2 eggs beaten
1 tsp. salt
1/4 c. sugar

Add all ingredients in list order to breadmaker. Set breadmaker to dough setting. Remove immediately when dough cycle ends. Form dough into round balls and place in lightly greased baking pan (may need to sprinkle dough with flour to avoid sticking to hands). Let dough raise for approx. 1 hr. or until doubled in size. Brush tops of rolls with oil or butter prior to baking. Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes.
