How to make butter horns:

Combine milk, shortening, sugar and salt. Cool to lukewarm. Add yeast and eggs, then flour. Mix to smooth soft dough. Knead lightly on floured surface. Place dough in a greased bowl; cover and let rise until at least double in bulk. Divide dough in thirds; roll each 1/3 on lightly floured surface to 9-inch circle. Brush with melted butter. Cut each circle into 12 to 16 wedges. Roll each wedge starting with wide end and roll to point. Arrange in baking pan and brush with salad oil. Cover. Let rise until very light. Bake in 400° to 425° oven for 15 minutes. Cool. When slightly warm, frost with confectioners sugar frosting.
