-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lb Frozen white bread dough --
- thawed per pkg directions
4 Frankfurters
1 tb Milk
Sesame or poppy seeds (optional)
Mustard or ketchup
Add a little whimsey to lunchtime and serve frankfurters in
fun-to-eat shapes. Frozen bread dough bakes up around the franks to
form a roll. You can make eight flowers, eight butterflies, or a
combination of both. The recipe is the same for both--you just the
franks different.
Grease baking sheets. Cut bread dough into 32 equal pieces. Roll each
piece of dough into a ball. Place 4 balls, slightly touching, in a
square on baking sheet.
To make flowers, cut frankfurters in half crosswise. Cut a deep X
through round ends of frank, cutting almost to the cut end. Place
frankfurter, cut end down, in the center of dough balls. Repeat with
remaining dough and frankfurters.
To make butterflies, cut frankfurters in half crosswise. Starting at
the flat end, cut about a third of the way down toward rounded end,
cutting all the way through the frankfurter to form antennae. Lay
frankfurter lengthwise through center of dough balls. Repeat with
remaining dough and frankfurters.
Let rise 10 to 15 minutes. Heat oven to 350 F. Using a pastry brush;
brush dough with milk and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, if
desired. Bake 10 to 15 minutes until golden. Cool slightly before
serving. Serve with mustard or ketchup.
