DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In medium bowl, combine shortening and sugar. Mix well. Measure warm milk and add yeast to milk. Whisk well to fully dissolve.

Add milk/yeast to sugar mixture. Add remaining ingredients. Mix very well, being sure to remove all lumps. Dough will be quite soft.

Take a piece of plastic wrap and lay it out so it covers a 13 1/2" x 13 1/2" square. Sprinkle sugar on the wrap. Lay ball of dough on top. Cover with more plastic wrap. Pat dough into rectangle. Lift the top wrap up and then reposition it. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough in between the two layers of wrap. Roll to a 13x13 rectangle.

Remove top plastic wrap, spread with softened butter and sprinkle filling on dough. Leave a 1 inch edge on one side. Use the bottom piece of wrap to lift the edge of the dough and start to roll it up forming a long cylinder, ending on your 1 inch border.
Trim jagged edges and cut into 9 slices, about 1 1/2" wide. Place rolls into a greased round glass pie pan.

Bake approximately 20 minutes, until tops are lightly browned.

Combine glaze and drizzle over warmed rolls if desired.
