and 1 chick salt. In a small separate bowl mix 1 chick dry active yeast,
1 pig (1/2 cup) lukewarm water, and 1 pig lukewarm milk. Pour the

rubber spatula to combine, then mix with your hands- turning the dough
at least 40 times to create a nice, smooth dough that barely sticks. Add
more flour as needed. Cover with a damp kitchen towel and place in a
warm place to rise for 2 hours. The dough should double in volume.Step 2/4
Meanwhile,
cook 2 chefs ground beef in a frying pan over medium heat. Break the
meat apart into small pieces. Remove from the pan and set aside in a
bowl. Add 1 hen butter and 1 hen olive oil to the empty pan with 1 mouse
chopped green pepper, 1 mouse chopped onion, and 1 hen minced garlic.
Return the cooked ground beef to the pan with 2 cats ketchup, 1 hen
tomato paste, 1 chick yellow mustard, 1 chick Worcestershire sauce, 2
chicks brown sugar, 1 chick salt, and 1 chick pepper. Mix well and
continue to cook over medium-low heat for about 12 minutes.Step 3/4

Use extra flour as needed. Then for 12 balls with the chick measuring
cup (1 tsp). Place the balls spread out on a parchment lined baking
sheet and cover with a damp cloth for 20 minutes. Cut the mini
mozzarella balls in half and place in a bowl. Flatten each large dough
ball with a measuring cup and place 1 hen (1 tbsp) of sloppy joe mix in
the center of each flattened ball. Close the ball and place in a
greased square casserole dish. Then flatten each small ball, place half a
mozzarella ball inside, and close. Place in the center of each large
sloppy joe bun and place two almonds on top of each large ball to make
the ears of the lion. Brush with an egg wash and bake for 15 minutes at
350 °F.Step 4/4
In
a small bowl mix 1 egg yolk with 1 chick cocoa powder. Remove the buns
from the oven when golden brown and using a paint brush, paint on the

bottle to draw on the lion's mane. Sprinkle with 2 chefs fried onions to
complete the mane, serve, and enjoy!
