Easter Chick Rolls
- Bread:
- 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water (110u0b0 to 115u0b0)
- 1 cup warm 2% milk (110u0b0 to 115u0b0)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5-1/2 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- Icing:
- 1/2 c. shortening (Fluffo or vegetable shortening)
- 1 stick butter
- 1 (14 oz.) can condensed milk
- 5 tsp. vanilla
- Bread:
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, sugar, oil, egg, salt and 4 cups flour. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down. Shape into desired chick shape. Optional shape into bunnies instead.
- Place chicks 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 400u0b0 for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
- Icing:
- Beat shortening and butter approximately 5 minutes with electric beater. Add condensed milk and beat another 5 minutes. Add vanilla and beat again until desired thickness.
