No!!!

Yes, (evil laughter), another Mommy Blog (more evil laughter)!!! Life is a story, mine at the moment just happens to occur mostly at home, which means no sword fights or dragons, but plenty of peril, misadventure, and food. Like all good stories we will skip the boring parts (like laundry). So gird up your loins and let us commence with some real domestic adventures; don't forget your sense of humor.

A twist on a Twist

Tired of spherical confections, I went in search of a recipe for cinnamon twists.  You can use any sweet roll dough or even a white bread recipe, I used my sourdough sweet roll recipe, and it worked great.  You can also modify the recipe and make garlic Parmesan twists instead, I actually split it in half, using 1/2 with our spaghetti last night and the other half for breakfast this morning.

1 recipe sweet roll dough (about 4 cups of flour)

Roll out the dough into a 16x12 inch square and spread with 1/4 cup melted butter.  Mix 1/2 cup brown sugar and one tbsp cinnamon (or 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 tsp garlic powder, and a 1/8 tsp salt) and spread over buttered dough; let sit for 15 minutes.

Cut dough into 3: 4 inch by 16 inch strips with a pizza cutter and then cut each strip into 16: 1x4 inch strips.  Twist each strip and place on a cookie sheet, let rise until double, bake at 425 degrees just until done, do not over bake, it will only be a few minutes.  Keep warm by wrapping in a towel and serve immediately.  They reheat well in the microwave.
