Savory Cheese Bundles - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 pkg. active dry yeast
1/4 c. warm water
1/2 c. margarine, melted
4 to 4 1/2 c. bread flour
4 eggs, divided
1 Tbsp. sugar
Savory Cheese Filling (recipe follows)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. water
Preparation
-
Dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand 5 minutes.
Combine 2 cups of flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
Add margarine, milk, 3 of the eggs and yeast mixture; beat until blended, about 2 minutes.
Stir in enough additional flour to make stiff dough. Place on lightly floured surface and knead 8 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
Place dough in greased bowl; turn to coat. Cover and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours. Punch down.
Knead dough a few times to release air.
Divide into 16 portions.
Roll each into a 6-inch circle.
Place 2 tablespoons of filling in center of each circle.
Draw dough up around filling to form bundle.
Pinch dough firmly above filling, letting top of dough flare loosely.
Place 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets.
Cover; let rise 30 minutes.
To seal firmly, lightly pinch bundle together again.
Combine remaining egg and water; brush over bundles.
