Easter Rolls

 I had a busy Easter morning yesterday.  I made a big brunch for my family and I made my mom's Easter rolls.

 They are a lot of work and worth every minute of it.

 This recipe is for frosted walnut rolls.


 And this one is for sour cream sugar twists.

 These turn out similar to elephant ears but are even better.

 You can shape them any way you want but I always twist them in the middle and make them into horseshoe shapes.

 I made double recipes of both of these because I gave a lot of them away.

 And, as usual, I forgot to take pics of the trays of them after they baked.

 Here are the recipes on 60 year old recipe cards.

 Click to enlarge them.
 I hope you had a good Easter!

They do look yummy!

I'll try to write down the recipe and try them when baking season starts again, that's autumn when I start having fires in my stove again :-)

Have a great day!

Your mother printed very nicely~! I love recipe cards - they are so much easier to refer to when cooking than a recipe on a screen or in a cookbook. I hope you had a very wonderful holiday. I know the food was divine.... :)

you have many beautiful treasures throughout your house and in your gardens. but i bet your mom's recipe cards are your favourite treasure.

well, except for teddy. because, you know, she's teddy.

i am very glad that you have those recipe cards. and very glad that you share your mom's recipes with all of us - no matter how far away we are - we all get to see your mom's cards and recipes.

What a treasure having your mums recipe card. I bet your family prefers eating at your place rather than eating out.

A 6o year old recipe is a precious commodity. And the fact you shared it makes it even more special. The rolls look positively delicious.
The old recipes are truly the best! I hope everyone had a happy Easter! I know you ate well!
