In "Sister Schubert's Secret Bread Recipes" there is a recipe for Parkerhouse Rolls. Is this what you wanted?

Combine yeast and warm water in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes.

Combine 4 cups sifted flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture and shortening. Add eggs and remaining 1 cup sifted flour; stir vigorously until well blended. (Dough will be soft and sticky.) Brush or lightly rub dough with some of the melted butter. Cover loosely; let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in bulk.

Grease four 8-inch round cakepans; set aside.

Sift 3/4 cup flour in a thick layer evenly overwork surface; turn dough out onto floured surface. (Dough will be soft.) Stir 1/2 cup flour evenly over dough. Roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness; brush off excess flour.

Cut out dough using a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter. Pull each round into an oval, approximately 2 1/2 inches long. Dip 1 side of oval into melted butter. Fold oval in half with buttered side facing out. (Floured side will form the famous Parkerhouse pocket.)

For each pan, place the folds of 10 rolls against side of prepared pan, pressing center fronts of rolls together gently to seal. Place 5 rolls in inner circle, and 1 roll in center for a total of 16 rolls per pan. Cover loosely, and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake rolls, uncovered, for 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Yield: 64 rolls.
