Making Bread Monsters.
I found a recipe in the book "Baking with Tiny Tots" by Becky Johnson. We spent part of the afternoon making some bread rolls and shaping them into "monsters" that look like porcupines. Isaac helped with some stirring and kneading. He was upset when I took the dough away.
Instead of using raisins, I used chocolate chips. All the noses and some eyes fell off during the baking process! Maybe I should've sticked with some sort of dried fruit.
I put it in the oven for 15 minutes - and it came out too crispy. The bread rolls were very dense. I'm not sure if I measured out the yeast properly, or if the yeast was active or if I messed up the process where I'm supposed to allow the dough to rise.
Not so tasty but at least they looked cute. Maybe I'll try this recipe one more time or substitute it with a different bread roll recipe.
