Cheddar Twists
List of Ingredients
3 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 packages Rapid Rise Yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2/3 cup water
1 (5-ounce) can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
1 egg white, lightly beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Grated Parmesan cheese or Poppy Seed
or Sesame Seed, optionalRecipe
In large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat water and milk until very warm (120� to 130�F); stir into dry ingredients. Stir in cheese and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes. Cover; let rest on floured surface 10 minutes. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece to 14-inch rope; fold each rope in half and pinch ends to seal. Twist each rope two to three times. Place on large greased baking sheet. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 20 to 40 minutes. Brush with egg white mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, poppy seed, or sesame seed, if desired. Bake at 400�F for 10 to 15 minutes or until done. Remove from baking sheet; let cool on wire racks.
Makes 1 dozen twists.
