Ingredients
Scale
- One batch of my Homemade Crescent Dinner Roll dough, mixed and risen once.
- 1/2 teaspoon food coloring (gel colors work best)
- 1–2 teaspoons water
Instructions
- Mix my Crescent Dinner Roll dough, cover and let rise until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare baking sheet by lining with parchment.
- Divid dough into 12 dough balls (weighing about 2 & 1/2 ounces each).
- Roll dough into 12 inch ropes.
- Starting at the tip of the mold, wrap the dough around the mold while turning it, making a spiral design. Pinch the end of the dough together to seal.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the food coloring and water. Brush it onto the dough on all sides. Place on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
- Bake for 16-17 minutes.
- Allow to cool before gently removing the mold.
- Fill with your favorite chicken salad and top with a sprig of parsley.
Notes
- Using a few pastel colors is also such a cute look. Dilute the food coloring with an additional 1-2 teaspoons for a lighter color.
- Piping the chicken salad in with a pastry bag is a quick and clean way to get the entire roll filled.
