Introduction

Coming from one of the Stepfather’s momma’s cook-notes: Honey is the basic flavour in these classic light fluffy dough Italian cookies. Americans call these a "Sweet Roll".

Ingredients

    3 1/8 cups white bread flour
    2 packages yeast
    2 large eggs, beaten
    2 tbsp olive oil
    2 ½ tbsp “strong honey” (don’t know what this means, I’m guessing stong-flavoured like chestnut or buckwheat)

Directions

Pour the flour onto your work surface and make a hole in the center with your fist.
Dilute the yeast with 2/3 cup warm water and pour into the hole.
Knead together as you would bread dough.
Leave the dough in a warm place to rise for 1 hour, then add the eggs, oil, and honey and knead again.
Shape the dough into about 14 individual "figure 8's" and arrange them at least 2-3 inches apart on an oiled baking sheet.
Leave them in a warm place to rise for up to 4 hours (the longer, the fluffier and lighter the cookie).
Bake them in a 375 degree oven for about 15 minutes.
Cool and store, or serve.
