Time 40m

Yield 2 dozen.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
3/4 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons shortening
1 large egg, beaten
2 teaspoons celery seed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Melted butter

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine sugar, shortening, egg, celery seed, salt, sage, nutmeg, yeast mixture and 2 cups flour; beat on medium speed until mixture resembles sand. Add milk, blend until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic; about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down; let rest 10 minutes., Divide dough into 24 pieces. For each bunny, roll one piece of dough into a 20-in. rope. Cut rope into one 10-in. piece, one 5-in. piece, two 2-in. pieces and one 1-in. piece. Coil 10-in. piece for body; place on a greased baking sheet. Coil 5-in. piece for head; place next to body. Form ears from the 2-in. pieces and tail from the 1-in. piece; add to bunny. Pinch and seal pieces together. Repeat, placing bunnies 2 in. apart on the baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel; let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes., Preheat oven to 375°. Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Brush with melted butter. Serve warm.

These rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I loved the idea of these rolls, but I had a little trouble getting the dough to rise. I think I might have needed to let it rise for a little longer.

These rolls were a little bit dry, but they were still good. I think I would add a little bit more butter or milk next time.
