Easter Chicks Recipe
Easter Chicks Ingredients:
DOUGH
5 cup all-purpose flour (5 to 5 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup sugar
2 package Fleischmann's. Rapid Rise Yeast
1 tbsp freshly grated lemon peel
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup evaporated milk (6 ounces)
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup butter or margarine (2/3 stick), cut up
2 eggs
Raisins
GLAZE
1 1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
2 tbsp evaporated milk (2 to 3 tablespoons
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Easter Chicks Preparation:
To make dough: Combine 2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, lemon peel
and salt. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120: to 130:F);
stir into dry ingredients. Stir in eggs and enough remaining flour to make
soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic,
about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
To shape: Divide dough into 18 equal pieces; roll to 10-inch ropes. Tie
each into knot, with one end slightly shorter than other. Place knots,
short ends up, 2 inches apart on 2 greased baking sheets. Pinch short end
of knot to form head and pointed beak.
Insert 2 raisins for eyes. With fingers, flatten long end of knot. With
sharp knife, make 4 to 5 cuts to form tail. Cover; let rise in warm,
draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 20 to 30 minutes.
Bake at 375:F for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown, covering with
foil after 8 minutes to prevent excess browning. Remove from pans to wire
racks. Place racks over jelly roll pans or waxed paper; immediately brush
with glaze while warm.
