Honey Bunnies
  Yield: 6 bunnies
  Dough 1 / 3 cup evaporated milk 1 / 4 cup water 1 / 4 cup honey 1 / 4 cup butter or margarine 1 large egg 1 / 2 teaspoon salt 2-1 / 3 cups bread flour 2 teaspoons (1/2 ounce or 4 1/2 tsp) Fleischmann's Bread Machine Yeast
  Raisins for eyes
  Honey Glaze 4 tablespoons honey 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  Add dough ingredients to bread machine pan in the order suggested by  manufacturer. Select dough/manual cycle. Or, combine ingredients, as usual, beat 2 minutes at medium speed of  electric mixer and knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and  elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes
  When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured  surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle.  Divide dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each to 20-inch rope. Divide each  rope into 1 (12-inch), 1 (5-inch), and 3 (1-inch) strips. Coil 12-inch  strip to make body; coil 5-inch strip to make head. Attach head to body;  pinch to seal. Shape remaining 3 strips into ears and tail; attach to head  and body. Place on greased baking sheet. Cover; let rise in warm,  draft-free place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  Bake at 375 F for 12 to 15 minutes or until done. Remove from sheet to wire  rack. Brush with Honey Glaze while warm. Insert raisins for eyes. If  desired, brush again with Honey Glaze before serving.
  Honey Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine honey and butter. Cook over low heat until  butter melts, stirring occasionally.
