My daughter's yout...Wow, that brings back memories! <BR/><BR/>My daughter's youth group at church used to have roll bakes to raise money for trips. Not all that many of the group participated, and fewer parents did (quite a few people at our church have $$$ but some were generous for us, who needed subsidies). I remember many all-day Saturdays working in the hot "commercial" kitchen at the church making both "dinner rolls" and "cinnamon rolls" to sell. There would be a few people baking the cinnamon rolls during the sermons on Sunday mornings so folk who did not pre-order would be inspired to by some rolls.<BR/><BR/>I have not eaten a cinnamon roll since! Too much sugar and cinnamon for me, who has no sweet tooth!<BR/><BR/>But I used to make a dough very similar to yours to make "monkey bread." I could still eat that—if I needed extra calories. It's very fun to eat though. Roll the dough out a little less than 1/2" thick, sort of rectangular. Cut triangles about 2" wide, 3" long (don't get anal), dip each in melted butter (or butter with herbs—my favorite was fresh dill), and place them overlapping in a bundt pan (or tube pan—I think any pan would work). Bake. To eat, you put the whole round loaf on a platter and people pull off buttery chunks of rolls. Great with a nice soup or stew.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3398781353996043657.post-32636290485342801992008-10-05T15:44:00.000+09:002008-10-05T15:44:00.000+09:00Oh thanks for that!

What I really need is a printer so that I can print all the great recipes I find on the net and make a recipe book- I suppose I could go old school and write them out but I am pretty sure that isn`t going to happen!<BR/><BR/>Thanks againLuluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17391030748931575341noreply@blogger.com
