Dove Rolls

• 1/2 cup low-fat milk
• 2 tsp dry active yeast
• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 3 tbsp butter, softened
• 1 pinch salt
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 medium egg yolk, mixed with 1 tsp water
• 8 None almonds
• 16 None cloves

1. For the dough, heat the milk until lukewarm and stir in the yeast. Place the flour in a bowl and add the yeast mixture. Stir into a smooth dough then cover and leave in a warm place for about 5 mins. Add the butter, salt and sugar and knead until smooth and elastic. If stiff, add a little warm water. Cover and leave in a warm place for another 30 mins.
2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead again. Shape into a long roll and divide into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a square. Cut one corner into a tail and fold the 2 adjacent corners in to make wings. Shape the remaining corner into a head. Place on a lined baking sheet, brush with the egg yolk and water mixture and bake for 15-20 mins.
3. Remove from oven and cool. Press the almonds into the doves' heads for beaks and the cloves for eyes.
