EASY CHEESY BUNS
These stir-down batter cheesy yeast rolls use just under a cup of cheez Whiz and turn out richly golden and puffy-topped. The cheese taste is there but isn't overpowering. Garlic or jalapeno Cheez Whiz would be interesting variations, depending on your menu.


1 package yeast

1/2 Cup warm water

2/3 Cup Cheez Whiz

2 Tablespoons sugar

1 Teaspoon salt

1 Egg

2 Tablespoons melted butter

2-1/2 Cups flour, divided

Soften yeast in warm water and let stand for 5 min. Add cheese, sugar, salt, egg, butter and 1 cup of the flour.

Beat 2 minutes with electric beater on low speed, until cheese is well blended. Add gradually 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 cups additional flour, to form a soft dough, mixing well after each addition.

Fill well-greased muffin tins about half full of dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.

Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 12 buns.

Note: Let the dough rise in a microwave. Bring 1-1/2 cups of water to a boil in the microwave. Leave the hot water in the micro, along with the dough. The warmth from the steam will reduce the rising time by about half.
