- 1 large egg
- 1 cup dried sweetened cranberries

- Transfer dough to unfloured surface; divide into 12 equal pieces.
- Using cupped hand, roll and rotate 1 dough piece firmly on work surface until dough piece pops up into cupped hand as smooth round ball, about 6 rotations (This will make dough ball as smooth as possible; if necessary, wipe work surface with damp paper towel to help create traction) and repeat with remaining dough pieces.
