Program for
dough
. Start bread maker. When done, unlock pan from bread maker. Place dough on floured surface. Knead dough about 1
minute, then let rest 15 minutes.
Roll dough into a rectangle, about 15 x 10 inches. Spread ¼ cup melted butter over dough to within 1 inch of edges. Then sprinkle ¼ cup
sugar, the cinnamon, nutmeg and chopped nuts evenly over dough. See Diagram 1. Roll dough up tightly on long side. Press edges to
seal and form into a 12-inch long, evenly shaped roll. See Diagram 2. With a knife or 8-inch long piece of thread or dental floss cut into
1-inch pieces. See Diagram 3. (If using thread or dental floss, slide under roll and criss-cross ends to cut neatly through dough.) Place
rolls into a greased 13 x 9- inch baking pan. See Diagram 4. Cover and let rise in warm, draft free place until double in size, about 30 to
40 minutes.
Bake in preheated 375°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on rack for 10 to 15 minutes, then drizzle with
powdered sugar icing made by combing 1 cup powdered sugar with 1 to 2 tablespoons milk and ½ teaspoon vanilla. Blend until smooth.
If too thin or thick, add more powdered sugar or milk, respectively, until desired consistency is reached. Cut apart and remove from pan.
