• For Dough
• 1 cup milk, scalded
• 1 1/2 cups sugar

1. Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water, then mix remaining ingredients as you would for bread with about 9 cups flour (Do not add the flour all at once; 9 cups is approximate, as with all bread many things including temperature and humidity effect how much flour you need. Use enough to make a smooth pliable nonsticky dough); knead well.

3. Mix filling ingredients together while milk is still warm.
4. Spread or roll dough on table top, making sure you have no holes.
5. Spread filling on top.
