1/2 c Shortening

4 ts Salt

2 ts Sugar

2 c Boiling water

2 pk Active yeast

5 c Flour

Put shortening, salt and sugar in large bowl. Pour

boiling water over all and stir until shortening

melts. Let cool to lukewarm. Sprinkle yeast over this;

stir to dissolve; let stand until mixture begins to

bubble. Add flour and beat.

Roll out on floured board to about 3/8-inch

thickness. Cut with round cutter, I use clean, empty

tuna can. Sprinkle cookie sheets with cornmeal. Set

muffins on these, fairly far apart. Let rise to double

in bulk. Set griddle or electric frypan to 350

.

Sprinkle with cornmeal. Put muffins, rounded side

7 minutes. Turn and bake

minutes on the other side. Split with fork, and toast

or spread with butter and put under broiler until

butter bubbles.

These muffins freeze successfully. They should be

split with fork before freezing. The recipe may be

doubled when preparing muffins for the freezer. When I

make these, I make 5 or 6 recipes!!!

They are even better than Wolfermans!!! I could

eat these till I pop!!! Yum! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
