Valentine's Day Recipes
Hugs and Kisses
Surprise your family with a special treat that says "I love you!"
Prep: 15 min | Start to Finish: 25 min | Yield: 12 rolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups Original Bisquick mix
- 1/3 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- Granulated sugar or colored sugar, if desired
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Stir Bisquick mix, milk, 2 tablespoons sugar and the egg in medium bowl until soft dough forms. Place dough on surface generously dusted with Bisquick mix; gently roll in Bisquick mix to coat. Shape into a ball; knead 5 times.
- Roll or pat dough into 6 1/2 inch square, 1/2 inch thick. Cut dough into 12 strips. Shape 6 strips into circles to make O shapes; pinch ends to secure. Cut remaining 6 strips crosswise in half; crisscross pairs of strips to make X shapes. (Or use X- and O-shaped cookie cutters dipped in Bisquick mix.) Place hugs and kisses on ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown.
- Immediately brush with melted butter and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Serve warm.
Notes
High Altitude (3500-6500 ft) No changes.
Kids love to play in dough! Get them involved in the shaping, which will make these treats extra-special for visiting grandparents or other relatives.
Substitution: Add extra flavor by sprinkling flavored sugars over the hot rolls. Try cinnamon-sugar, vanilla sugar or coconut sugar, which you'll find in the spice section of large supermarkets or cake decorating stores.
