Another family recipe from the Petzenhausers from Lake City. This is different from the recipe we use so I thought I'd post it. For my husbands family they roll their lefse very thin. So when I make this recipe I'll use walnut size pieces of dough. You will need a lefse grill to make these.

1 batch lefse (change servings and units)

Ingredients

6 cups water
1/2 cup oleo
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
12 ounces evaporated milk
6 cups instant mashed potatoes

Directions

1
Boil the water, oleo, salt and sugar together.
2
Add evaporated milk and instant potatoes mixing.
3
Cover and cool the mixture in the refrigerator overnight.
4
For every four cups of potatoes, add two cups of Robin Hood flour.
5
Mix dough with your hands.
6
Roll out dough on a floured board.
7
Bake on a lefse grill.
8
Flip the lefse over when brown spots appear.
9
Spread lefse with butter and sugar, roll and cut into squares.
10
If you want to freeze the lefse, make a mixture of two cups powdered sugar and 1/2 cup butter.
11
Spread the mixture on the lefse, fold and cut into squares and freeze.
12
Remove from freezer half an hour before serving.
