Recipe
To make dough: In large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast and salt. Heat water, sour cream and butter until very warm (120? to 130?F). Gradually add to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add egg and 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally. With spoon, stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough.
Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 5 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes. (For Rapid
Rise Yeast, cover kneaded dough; let rest 10 minutes. Proceed with recipe.)
To make filling: In small bowl, combine filling ingredients; set aside.
To shape and fill: Punch down dough; divide in half. On lightly floured surface, roll one half to 14 ð12-inch rectangle. Spread half of filling evenly over half of rectangle, covering 12 ð7 inches of dough. Fold dough
in half to enclose filling; pinch edges to seal. Cut crosswise into 12 strips. Repeat with remaining dough. Holding ends of each strip, twist in
opposite directions 5 to 6 times. Place on 2 greased large baking sheets, curving one end of each strip to form cane; cover. Place 2 large shallow pans on counter; half-fill with boiling water. Place baking sheets on pans; let dough rise 15 minutes.
Bake at 375F for 12 to 15 minutes.
