Swedish Tea Log - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 pkg. dry or cake yeast
1/4 c. warm water
2 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. butter
1/4 c. evaporated milk
1 unbeaten egg
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 c. chopped pecans
Preparation
-
Soften dry or cake yeast in warm water.
Sift together flour, salt and sugar.
Cut in or melt butter.
Add evaporated milk and egg.
Add softened yeast to mixture; mix well.
Cover.
Chill for 2 hours or overnight.
(Dough may be kept in refrigerator as long as 1 week.)
After dough has chilled and you are ready to make logs: cream butter and add brown sugar.
Cream well.
Stir in chopped pecans.
Divide dough into thirds.
Roll out one part on floured surface to a 12 x 6-inch rectangle.
Spread with 1/3 of the filling.
Roll up, starting with 12-inch side.
(Do not roll up like jelly roll.)
Fold both sides to center and press them together, then roll sides down.
Seal ends together so that filling will not run out of dough.
Place on foil lined cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
Let rise in warm place (85\u00b0 to 90\u00b0) until light, about 45 minutes.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 15 to 20 minutes or until light brown.
