Bear Buns

Ingredients:
pancakes, plain, dry mix, complete (includes buttermilk)
cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
honey
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
beans, snap, green, raw
sugars, powdered
water, bottled, generic

Directions:
Divide the tsubu-an into 10-12 g portions and roll into balls.
Put the ingredients in a bowl.
First add just 1 tablespoon of milk and mix, then check the consistency of the dough.
If it's dry, add a tiny bit more milk.
Knead the dough until it's shiny and doesn't stick to your hands.
Take 6 small bits of dough and roll them into balls to form the ears.
Divide the rest of the dough into 3 pieces.
Flatten one of the 3 pieces of dough on your hand, and put a piece of the tsubu-an on top.
Gather the dough around the tsubu-an ball.
Close up the dough and roll to form a ball.
Form the face into an oval and place on a piece of parchment paper.
Press the ears on the face ball.
Bake for 10 minutes at 320F/160 C.
Done!
Cool the buns on a rack.
Add a tiny bit of water to the powdered sugar to make stiff icing.
Draw faces on the buns using a toothpick.
It looks like this.
The bun is finished.
Please draw a face that you like.
I think you could make a panda, or a Hello Kitty.
I'll try it those out when I have time.
Put into a case made for Japanese sweets... it looks like something sold in a store!
If the buns harden the next day, microwave for 5 seconds and they'll become soft and fluffy again.
