For Julienne...

These are sooo yummy!


Croissant Rolls

1/2 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. warm milk
1/3 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt

Mix above ingredients until sugar is dissolved.

1/2 c. warm water to 1 Tbsp. yeast
1 egg, beaten

Mix together then add to above mixture.

Next add:
3 3/4 c. flour (a mix of wheat & white is fine-on Thanksgiving I think I used 1 1/2 c. wheat flour)

Stir until smooth. (I mix this in my kitchen aid with the dough hook & just let it beat at a lower speed until it appears smooth). Let raise until double in size, then roll out a circle and cut into eight pieces as  you would a pizza. Roll each slice from the longest side to the shortest size (croissant style). Place on a sprayed cookie sheet.

Bake for 13-15 minutes at 400 degrees.
