Heat milk, sugar, salt and shortening to 115F. Stir into yeast mixture. Beat in 2 1/2 cups flour. Stir in enough of remaining flour to make a fairly stiff dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Knead 10 minutes, slowly add flour a tablespoon at a time, as needed, to prevent sticking. Place dough in greased bowl, turning to greased surface is on top. Cover with damp towel and let rise in a warm place for an hour or until doubled in size. Punch down dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into smooth ball. Cover with damp towel. Let rest for 10 minutes. Flatten to remove air bubbles. Roll into two 14x8" rectangles. Roll up tightly (jelly roll fashion) from short side.
