These rolls are wonderfully sweet and creamy- plain or stuffed with hamburger filling. They can be made and slipped into a lunch bag as a snack for the kids. They're best served freshly made. Enjoy! - Justine (Wall, NJ) Yield: about 1 dozen large rolls INGREDIENTS: For the bread dough: 2 tbsp active dry yeast 1 cup warm water 1 cup warm milk 1/2 cup white sugar pinch of salt 1/2 cup olive or canola oil 6 cups all purpose flour 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs For the hamburger filling: 1/2 lb lean ground beef salt and pepper PROCEDURE: 1. In a large bowl, mix water and milk. Dissolve two tablespoons of active dry yeast and let stand for 10-15 minutes or until bubbles are seen forming in the liquid. 2. Add the sugar, salt and oil. Mix until blended. Add the flour gradually, cup by cup, until well incorporated. 3. Place dough on a floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes until the dough is elastic and sticky. 4. Coat a large bowl with olive oil. Place the kneaded dough in the bowl and brush the top and sides of the dough with oil. Cover bowl with a damp cloth or 3 layers of damp paper towel. Let dough stand untouched for 2 hours. It should double in size. 5. Make the filling: brown the ground beef in a skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Allow to cool. 6. Punch the dough in the center once. Place on the floured surface and knead again for 2 minutes. Divide into two, and form each piece into large logs. Cut each log crosswise into 5-6 pieces. 7. Flatten each piece in your hand to 1/8 inch thickness. Place a teaspoonfull of cooked ground beef in the center and bring together the edges. Pinch together edges to seal well and form into a ball. 8. Preheat the oven to 350C. 9. Roll each dough ball in plain breadcrumbs until lightly coated and place 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet sprinkled with breadcrumbs. Let stand to rise for another 20 minutes. 10. Bake for 20 minutes or until the tops of each roll are light golden brown. 11. Cool for at least 5 minutes before eating. Filling may be extremely hot so eat with caution if not cooled completely. NOTE: You may opt to prepare sweet rolls with no filling by omitting steps 5 and 7. Also, try making different fillings to stuff each roll with (tuna, chicken, meatloaf). |
