Sorry I keep making a bunch of Peeta food. You may recall the goat cheese and

apple tart [http://www.yammiesnoshery.com/2012/03/peetas-goat-cheese-and-apple-

tart.html] from when The Hunger Games came out in theaters.

Don't hate, but I'm not actually on "team Peeta". I mean, don't get me wrong,

Peeta's a cool person and everything, but Peeta and I are like... the same person.

We're both bakers, we have a great sense of humor, we're really eloquent and good

with words (HA), and neither of us would stand a chance on our own in the hunger

games.

You know, sometimes I wonder if he's actually my great-great-great grandson. I

mean, The Hunger Games is in the future. Maybe I'm the Grandma who will pass

down all my recipes to him.

Anyways, even if we weren't related, I need a real man who can protect me from

psychopathic teenagers in the woods. And more importantly, I need me a

Hemsworth.

But what food does Gale have to offer? Squirrel stew? Roasted possum butts? I

don't think so.

See, since Peeta and I have the same mind, I know exactly what he would bake. Andnothing could be more fitting to feast on while you watch The Hunger Games on

DVD than Katniss's favorite food: Peeta's cheese buns.

Not that I'm actually going to make these again tomorrow night when we watch the

movie. Or does the DVD come out on Saturday? Is it even this week? I guess I'm not

a very good fan. Piggie would be ashamed. I guess if she's gotten this far reading

this post, she's already fuming about me publicly proclaiming my anti-team-Peetaviews, but... what the heck. I made her cheese buns so she should just deal with it.

But Peeta, you still are my grandson, even if I'm not on your "team". So I hope that

none of this recipe gets lost to the ravages of time, because the way it is here and

now in 2012 is perfection. Not only do they have cheese baked on top like you made

them in the book, they also are stuffed with a gooey hunk of cheese. Don't forget

that, sonny. It'll win Katniss's heart for sure.

These are actually really easy to make. They only take about an hour. First you just

make the dough in your mixer and let it knead for about 10 minutes. Then let it rise

for about 30 minutes. Then my favorite part, stuffing each one with cheese.

You just roll it into a ball, stick a hunk of cheese in, and then pinch it back together

so that it can't escape.

Once it's completely sealed, throw some more cheese on top. After you bake them,

make sure you brush them with some butter.

Anyways, the rest is history. I mean... a dystopian future. Whatever.

Peeta's Stuffed Cheese Buns

1 cup warm water (probably somewhere between 105 and 115. I just

get it hot from the tap. Don't get it too hot or it will kill the yeast.)

2 tablespoons yeast

2 tablespoons sugar

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1/4 cup melted butter1/4 cup olive oil

3 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons salt

-At least 8 oz. of cheese, the more the merrier (I used chunks of

mozzarella for the inside and a mixture of shredded colby and swiss for

the top. I was just trying to use up all the forgotten chunks in the hidden

corners of the fridge)

-Parmesan cheese

-A few tablespoons of melted butter mixed with a sprinkle of garlic

powder and some fresh herbs if you want.

Mix together the yeast and water and let it sit for a couple minutes. Add

the sugar, garlic powder, melted butter, and oil. Add the flour a little and

a time, mixing in your stand mixer with a dough hook. Add the salt.

Knead for 10 minutes, in the stand mixer or by hand. Let the dough rise

in a greased bowl (I used the same bowl) covered with a wet cloth for

about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375. Divide the dough into

about 20 pieces or so (you can make them as big or small as you want).

Put about a 3/4 inch chunk of cheese in each one and make sure you

pinch all the edges back up tightly. Put the pinched side down on a

greased baking sheet. Sprinkle the buns with more shredded cheese

and some parmesan cheese. Bake at 375F for about 11-15 minutes

until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly. Brush with the

melted butter and serve warm.

What should the consistency of the dough be? And should it be easy to form or

does it stick to your hands. Sorry first time cook haha

Yammie August 25, 2012 8:03 AMIf it's stickier than it looks in that picture where the cheese is being

pinched in, just add a little more flour.

I was just wondering, is it alright to refrigerate the dough after making it and

save it for a few days later..?
