Mouse's Dinner Rolls
Anything Mouse touches turns to gold! I don't think I have ever tasted anything she has made that I haven't loved and begged for the recipe. These rolls are amazing!
Ingredients:
4 cups milk
1 1/4 cup of sugar
1 cup real butter
4 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
4 pckgs rapid rise yeast
4 eggs
About 14 cups of all purpose flour
1/2 cup butter softened
Method:
In Saucepan melt 1 cup butter over low-medium heat. Once melted add milk, salt, sugar, water. Stir to blend ingredients. Heat liquid until scalding. Remove from heat. Insert thermometer and watch for temp to cool to 125 degrees.
Meanwhile, in large mixing bowl add 4 cups four, 4 pckgs of yeast and whisk until well blended. Make a well in the center and set aside.
Prepare pans by lining cookie sheets with foil and butter pans and set aside (you will need about 4 cookie sheets)
When liquid reaches 125 degrees pour into mixxing bowl and whisk until smooth (all yeast should be dissolved and no lumps) Add 4 eggs and whisk until smooth and well incorporated. Add 2 more cups of flour mixing with your hands to moisten and well combined. Continue adding remaining flour beating to moisten and well combined. When enough flour is added the dough will not be too sticky, it will form a dough ball.
Sprinkle flour on bread board, remove dough from bowl and knead about 10-15 minutes on the bread board. Shape into dough ball and place in buttered mixing bowl and cover with a tea towel and allow to rise 1 hour or until or until double in size. Punch down. Pinch some dough from the dough ball and shape dough into rolls and place on buttered cookie sheets to rise. Allow to rise until double in size (about one hour or a little longer)

Mir's Sugar Cookies and Royal Icing
Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
2 cups (four sticks) of sweet cream salted butter
3 cups of Confectioner's Sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp Vanilla
1 tsp Almond extract
5.5 cups All-purpose flour
3.5 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp. Salt
Method:
Cream together softened butter and confectioner's sugar. Crack the egg into a separate bowl, and add the flavoring. I use emulsions, but extract also works well. Add that to the butter sugar mixture and mix until the egg is thoroughly incorporated. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then add little by little to the mixture. I can tell the dough is ready whit it no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. When I touch it, it has a little give, but does not stick to my fingers
Roll out to about 1/4 inch thick, use flour for dusting as necessary. Then, cut and bake at 400 degrees for 7-8 minutes. This version makes 4-5 dozen
Notes:
This dough DOES not need to be refrigerated before rolling it out, that is the best part. It does need to rest a little after mixing, it will firm up a little bit after a minute or two. Decorate the cookies the next day, the surface seems to be prettier the next day.
Royal Icing Flowers (Step one of iced cookies)
Ingredients:
2 egg whites
1 tsp lemon juice
5 cups Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp almond extract
3 tsp water (approximate)
Method:
Mix egg whites and lemon juice. Add powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing in between. add almond extract and whip. Add water if needed. Frosting needs to pretty thick to hold the structure of the piped flower. Use a piping bag and flower tip and pipe away. Let dry and store in ziplock bags.
Royal Icing Piped Borders (Step two of iced cookies)
Ingredients:
3 egg whites
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp Almond extract
5 - 5.5 cups of Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp water
Method:
Mix egg whites and lemon juice. Add powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing in between. add almond extract and whip. Add water if needed. Use this frosting to pipe borders prior to flooding and then also after flooded cookies are completely dry to add accents.
Royal Icing Flooding (Step 3 of iced cookies)
Ingredients:
6 egg whites
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp of Almond Extract
8 cups of Powdered Sugar
Mix together on low. Use to flood piped cookies. Let dry for 24 hours on counter top before adding accents and additional piping. Use piping icing to glue flowers on the cookies.
