Made bear claws out of these; this dough is what makes the whole recipe work. TOTALLY RECOMMEND!

Recipe was simple to follow, but there were concerns since I've never dealt with this type of dough before. First, it feels heavy, and second, when it calls for lukewarm water, be sure that it's more than a little warm and that the yeast bubbles up. I didn't bake this dough; I'm going to use it for a bear claw recipe. I recommend this, and if you wish to see a full process, feel free to visit my blog!
