3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup margarine or butter, softened
2 eggs
3 1/3 cups bread flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
2 teaspoons bread machine or quick active dry yeast
1/2 cup dried red cherries
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water

Measure carefully, placing all ingredients except dried cherries, egg white and water in bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Add cherries at the Raisin/Nut signal.

Select Dough/Manual cycle. Do not use delay cycles.

Remove dough from pan, using lightly floured hands. Cover and let rest 10 minutes on lightly floured surface.

Grease large cookie sheet. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces shape each piece into a smooth ball. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in warm place 20 to 30 minutes or until almost double.

Heat oven to 375°. Make 3 parallel slashes, about 1/4 inch deep, in top of each roll, using sharp knife. Lightly beat egg white and water brush over tops of rolls. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until dark golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack cool.

SUCCESS TIP
If your bread machine doesn't have a Raisin/Nut signal, add the cherries 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle ends. Check your bread machine's use-and-care book to find out how long the last cycle runs.

Do-ahead Note
After you have shaped the dough into rolls and placed them on the cookie sheet, cover it with plastic wrap. You can refrigerate it from 4-48 hours. Before baking, remove the dough from the refrigerator and remove the plastic wrap. Cover with kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place about 2 hours or until it is almost double. Then continue as the recipe tells you.

Try This
For a fall breakfast treat, use dried cranberries instead of the cherries. Or you may want to try raisins instead of the cherries and cinnamon instead of the mace for a family favorite.
