List of Ingredients




Cake:
3 c. flour
2 T. sugar
1 t. salt
1 T. yeast (package)
3/4 c. milk
3 T. shortening

Filling: (If desired, for less filling, use ½ of each of these ingredients)

1/2 c. finely chopped nuts
1 c. white sugar
1/4 c. brown sugar (plus some)
2 t. cinnamon
1/2 c. butter, melted

Glaze:
1/2 c. powdered sugar
1 to 2 t. milk


Recipe



Mix 2 cups flour, sugar, salt and yeast in large bowl. Combine milk,
water and shortening in a small sauce pan. Heat till very warm (120 to
130 F.) (I just heated it in the microwave for 2 minutes!)
Add warm liquid to the flour mixture; blend at low speed until
moistened. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand, stir in remaining
cup of flour until dough pulls away from sides of bowl. On lightly
floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Place dough in greased bowl. Cover loosely and let rise in warm place
until light and doubled in size (about an hour)
Grease a 12 in. pizza pan or large cookie sheet (suggestion - line it
with tinfoil first). In a shallow dish or pie pan combine nuts, sugars
and cinnamon; mix well. Place melted butter in another pie pan.
Punch down dough several times to remove all air bubbles. Turn dough
onto lightly floured surface. Pinch off 1 1/2 to 2 inch piece of dough;
roll into 6 in. strip (don't worry about the size, variety is
interesting!). Repeat with remaining dough. Dip each strip in butter to
coat; roll in sugar mixture to coat
evenly. Place one strip in center of pan; wind to form a coil. Repeat
with remaining strips, placing close together to make a round, flat
coffee cake. Cover and let rise in warm place until light and doubled
in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
Heat oven to 350, uncover coffee cake. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until
golden brown. Cool 5 minutes, remove from pan; place on serving plate
Combine glaze ingredients, adding enough milk for drizzling
consistency. Drizzle over warm cake.
**if you want it to taste like the icing at the cinnamon roll places
in the mall or something, add a drop or 2 of vanilla and almond extract!
