Make a white bread dough with 3 c. flour, 1 c. water, 1 T. yeast, 1 t. salt. I added 3 T. sugar, 4 T. melted butter, and 4 T. buttermilk powder.
After it had risen, I took roll-sized portions of dough and rolled them between both hands until they were 10 or so skinny inches long. It helps to twirl them like jump ropes. Then, in my hands, I crossed one end over the middle, then crossed it back under the remains of the other end. The ears took a lot of pinching, and it helped to tuck the higher ear firmly under the other one so that they remained both at about the same level. Photo shows only partial success.
If you think they are looking at you, give them mouths and ear-insides. Otherwise give them tails. These tails are rolled in brown sugar.
