Yield: 1 Servings
2 c Milk; scalded
1 Yeast cake
2 Egg yolks; beaten
1 ts Salt
1/2 c Sugar
pn Cardamom
5 c To 6 flour
1/2 c Butter
Cool milk to lukewarm. Add yeast and 1 teaspoon of
the sugar; let stand 10 minutes. Add egg yolks,
salt, sugar and cardamom; mix well. Stir in flour
to make a soft dough. Let raise about an hour.
Roll out dough quite thin adding more flour if
necessary. Spread dough with butter; cut into
three strips; fold each strip so that the butter
is on the inside; braid the strips. Cut into
loaves or make a wreath. Let rise again about an
hour; brush top with egg whites and sprinkle with
sugar. Bake at 350° degrees for about 25 minutes.
