The Aikens are very involved in Isabel's education. Dad, an art teacher at Shadyside Academy, once showed the class how to make pottery. Mom is often the "mom-of-the-day" and bakes cookies for the class and comes in to help. Every Thursday, the class cooks, and this was one of Isabel's favorite recipes.
We tried it out with our young testers. It was a fun afternoon project that doubled as an afternoon snack. We served ours with mustard and Cheez Whiz for dipping.
1 package dry yeast
Stir yeast into warm water. Add honey and salt. Allow to sit for 5 minutes. Stir in flour and mix. Knead for 5 to 7 minutes.
Place dough in a greased bowl and then cover with a towel. Allow to rise for 20 minutes. Roll out long pieces of dough and form letters. Place on greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 475 for 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with butter and jelly.
