Sesame Cheese Crescents

I know this isn't exactly a new year's resolution kind of food but don't worry, just book mark it for next fall when you're in need of a FABULOUS bread recipe that'll knock your socks off.

The rolls have an interesting flavor and are always soft and tender--and you guessed it, I make them with dough cycle in my bread machine.

Bread:
2/3 cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon anise seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast

Filing:
4 ounces crumbled feta
4 ounces grated mozzarella
1 egg

To make the dough put all of the bread ingredients into your bread machine and set to "dough" cycle. When it's ready mix the three ingredients for the filling and set aside. Divide the dough into two equal halves and roll each out into a circle big enough to cut eight triangle shaped wedges (pizza style). Put a spoonful of filling in the middle of each wedge then roll the dough up from the wide end to the point.

If desired you can brush the rolls with an egg wash that you make from 1 beaten egg and a tablespoon of milk before sprinkling with more sesame seeds but usually I'm too lazy to finish that part off and I just bake them for 15 minutes at 350 degrees or until they're golden brown. Best served warm.
