The shape is usually a roll with 2 halves. Bobby Flay's recipe as written at Food Network gives his method of creating the shape: On lightly floured surface with floured rolling pin, roll dough 1/2 inch thick. With floured 2 3/4-inch round cutter, cut dough into circles. Holding dough circle by the edge, dip both sides into melted margarine or butter pan; fold in half. Arrange folded dough in rows in pans, each nearly touching the other. Always fun to know the background on a recipe; I hope you think so, too.

If I *had* to have something go wrong this week, I suppose it would have been these rolls. So, I can't complain too much. All the other new recipes have gone great. Suzy: I like your math! And if it's not too much of a cute overload, I think a mini-themed soiree would be just perfect for an expecting couple! Damian: Welcome to Chicago! We searched far & wide for Matchbox-esque mini burgers here and the closest we've found are those at Lux Bar. But they just aren't the same and you can't get a stellar pizza (our favorite was fire & smoke, if I remember right) with them too (I know, how hedonistic is a pizza-burger dinner?), like you can at Matchbox.

I will have to try these myself if it winds up working for you. Except maybe I'll wait until it's a little warmer...

I'm totally planning a soiree right now just so I have the excuse to make Matchbox-style sliders (one for me, one for the baby in utero, one for me...isn't that how it works?). :) What a fabulous idea for a party, Kristin!

I think it's something about cooking for other people, and trying new recipes you don't know doesn't help either!! Your second try looks perfect, though!
