Combine sugar, buttermilk, shortening and salt in a saucepan (we did this in the microwave); heat until shortening melts. Remove from heat; stir in potatoes. Cool to 105 degrees to 115 degrees.
Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large nixing towl; let stand 5 minutes Add potato mixture. eggs and 2 cups flour, beating at medium speed of an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. (We used a total of 5 cups).
Turn dough out onto a floured surfce; knead until smooth and elastic (8 minutes). Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and chill 3 hours or until doubled.
Punch dough down; divide into thirds. Roll 1 third into a 10-inch circle on a floured surface; brush with butter.
Cut into 12 wedges: roll up wedges from wide end. Place on greased baking sheet, point side down.
Repeat with remaining dough, or cover and chill up to 1 week. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), 50 minutes or until doubled.
