Dissolve 2 packages of yeast in 1 cup of lukewarm water and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of boiling water, 1 cup of sugar, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 cup of shortening.

Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, add 2 eggs and beat well.

Add the yeast mixture to the egg mixture and combine thoroughly.

Gradually add 3 cups of flour to the wet ingredients and mix well.

Add an additional 3 to 4 cups of flour, mixing until the dough is soft and firm. You may need to stir by hand to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.

Refrigerate the dough overnight for best results, or shape into rolls immediately.

Shape the dough into rolls.

Let the rolls rise for approximately 2 to 2.5 hours.

Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Serve warm.
