The ground rules:  I've searched high and low for a dough boys 
recipe, so if you have one please pretend to having had a difficult 
time providing it.

The request:  About 10 years ago I discovered a dough boy recipe, 
made them, loved them, lost the recipe and have been searching for 
the recipe ever since.  Basically, dough boys are heavy yeast rolls, 
shaped into boys with round heads, a body, arms and legs -- having an 
egg (dyed red or not) that are wrapped by the arms.  It makes (made?) 
a terrific Easter bread since each member of the family got one to 
eat for breakfast.  If anyone knows about dough boys, I would 
appreciate very much hearing how you make them.  I could fake it, but 
I think they are traditional somewhere and would like to stay with a 
tradition if it exists.
