Crescent Rolls recipe – 193 calories

Ingredients:
7 cups flour
2 (1/4 ounce) packages active dry yeast
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup milk, warm
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water

Preparation:
1. Dissolve the yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar in the warm water.
2. Let stand for about 5 minutes.
3. In a large mixing bowl, mix the milk, butter, remaining sugar and salt.
4. Add 2 cups flour, mixing well.
5. Add the beaten eggs and yeast. Beat well.
6. Add the remaining flour (or enough to make a soft dough).
7. Cover the dough and let rest for about 20 minutes.
8. Knead the dough on a lightly floured board, then place in a greased bowl.
9. Cover and let rise until double in bulk.
10. Punch down and divide the dough into thirds. Roll into a 12″ diameter circle, cut the circle into 16 pie-shaped pieces.
11. Starting with the wide end, roll up into crescent shapes.
12. Place the crescent rolls on a greased cookie sheet (don’t crowd – the rolls need plenty of room) and let rise for about 1 hour, covering lightly with plastic wrap.
13. Bake in a preheated 375º F oven for about 10-12 minutes (or until golden brown).
