- Place in a baking sheet. Cover; let rise till nearly double about 30 minutes.
- Bake in a 375 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes. (Be sure to check them, they brown easily.)For the sugar glaze combine 1 cup sifted powdered sugar with 1/4 teaspoon vanilla and 1 tablespoon milk. Continue to add milk 1 teaspoon at a time until you get a drizzling consistency.
