Almond-Filled Butterhorns

Almond-Filled Butterhorns
I add potato flakes to make my butterhorns moist and tender. The rolls complement any meal wonderfully with just the right sweetness to make them a coffee hour favorite. Remember to hide a few for yourself!
36 ServingsPrep: 30 min. + rising Bake: 10 min./batch

Ingredients

  • 3-1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 cups warm milk (110° to 115°)

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1-1/8 teaspoons salt
  • 7 to 8 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in milk. Add the eggs, potato flakes,

  • Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into
  • thirds. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; spread each with
  • filling. Cut each circle into 12 wedges.
  • Roll up wedges from the wide end and place point side down 2 in.
  • apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends to form a crescent. Cover
  • and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
