Use your favorite roll recipe or you can use the one that follows called Ida's Rolls.
Bunnies: - Cut dough into even 1 1/2" x 3" pieces (approximately).
- Roll dough into long tubes or snakes.
- Cross dough snake to make a loop at the bottom.
- Twist ends (ears) one more time.
- Roll a small piece of dough into a ball and place in loop to form tail.
- Place on cookie sheet sprayed with vegetable spray and spray bunnies lightly with additional oil spray. Let raise 1/2 to 1 hour. Do not raise too long or bunnies will become misshapen and it will take a lot of imagination to tell they are bunnies.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Birds:
- Cut dough into even 1 1/2" x 3" pieces (approximately).
- Roll dough into long tubes or snakes. Make the snakes shorter and fatter than the tubes for the bunnies.
- Cross dough snake to make a loop at the bottom. Pull one end of dough snake through the loop opening. You are just tying the dough in a knot. (This is how you make knot rolls).
- One end of the dough becomes the head and the other becomes the tail.
- Round the head and place two small raisin pieces into the head for eyes. You could also try another raisin for the beak or just go beakless!
- Flatten the end piece for the tail and with a knife cut slits to make the tail feathers.
- Place on cookie sheet sprayed with vegetable spray and spray birds lightly with additional oil spray. Let raise 1/2 to 1 hour. Do not raise too long or birds will become misshapen and it will take a lot of imagination to tell they are birds.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
