2 pkgs. (1/4 oz. each) active dry yeast
½ cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
½ cup warm milk (110 to 115 degrees)
½ cup butter or margarine, softened
½ cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
4½ to 5 cups all-purpose flour

Recipe
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Let stand for 5 minutes. Add milk, butter, sugar, eggs and salt. Stir in enough flour to form a stiff dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 min. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours. Punch dough down; divide into three portions. Cover two with plastic wrap. Shape one portion into 12 balls. Roll each ball into an 8 inch rope. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip rope into melted butter, then coat with cinnamon-sugar. Tie rope into a knot. Tuck and pinch ends under and place on ungreased baking sheets. Repeat with remaining dough. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 375° for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 3 doz.
