On our HoppeFam Live.ly this week, we had a contest:  Dumbeldore VS. Princess Leia!  The people voted on who they liked best and Dumbledore won by a landslide!  We were stunned!

Even though Dumbledore won the vote, Princess Leia won a Hoppefam tribute in the form of food.  I give you Princess Leia Bun Buns.  Miriam named them.  I was calling them Princess Leia Buns Garlic Biscuits.  I think Miriam has a better knack for naming things.  Although I named her so…

Princess Leia Bun Buns are a swirled garlic biscuit!  Yum!

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

In a medium bowl mix:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Cut in 1/2 cup cold butter (this means that you use a cut and mash the butter into the flour mixture until it looks like a white crumble)

In a small bowl mix well

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup milk

 

Pour into flour mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.  Roll out into a rectangle shape (about twice as long and it is wide) on a floured surface until the dough is about 1/4 inch thick. Pour 1 Tablespoon of melted butter onto the dough.  Spread it around.  Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt. Fold the rectangle of dough in half so that you have a square. Cut into 1/2 inch strips.  Roll each strip into a swirl. Place on baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.  Make approximately 15 small swirls.
