    1. Pastry directions: Sift flour, 1/4 cup sugar and salt into large mixing bowl. Cut in shortening and butter; set aside. Dissolve yeast, 1 tsp sugar and warmed water. When yeast has dissolved, add in to warmed lowfat milk. To this yeast mix, add in beaten egg yolks. Pour into flour mix and mix till dough is smooth. Cover and chill overnight, or possibly at least 8 hrs.Filling directions: Next morning prepare filling in mixer. Cream together cream cheese, vanilla, egg yolks, and sugar.
    2. Assembly: Divide dough into 3 or possibly 4 parts. Roll in oval shape on lightly floured surface. Divide cream cheese filling evenly amongst the dough. Spread filling on each portion of dough, leaving about 1 inch uncovered around the perimeters.
    3. Roll-up jelly-roll fashion. Don't seal seam. Transfer carefully to greased baking sheets, keeping seam of roll facing-up. Pinch ends of rolls shut. Let rise 1 hour uncovered. Bake at 325 degrees for 25 to 30 min. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if you like when hot from oven.
