Ingredients
Coffee Cake
- 16 ounce hot roll mix package
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup milk very warm
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine; softened
- 1/2 cup pecans chopped
- 3/4 cup dried cranberries or cherries
- 1/2 cup cherry preserves
- 1 tablespoon water
Glaze
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 teaspoons milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- For coffee cake, combine hot roll mix, yeast packet and granulated sugar in a bowl. Separate 1 egg white from yolk; reserve white. Add milk, butter, whole egg and egg yolk to a bowl. Stir until mixture forms a ball.
- Turn dough out onto well-floured surface. With floured hands, knead dough 5 minutes. Sprinkle additional flour over surface as needed to reduce stickiness. Cover; let dough rest 5 minutes.
- Chop pecans; combine with the dried fruit in a bowl. Place dough in center of lightly floured rectangle stone; roll into 12 x 15-inch. Spread preserves in 6-inch strip lengthwise down center of dough to within 1/4 inch of each end; sprinkle fruit mixture evenly over preserves.
- Cut 1-inch-wide strips on each side of fruit filling to within 1/2 inch of filling. Lift strips of dough across filling to meet in center, twisting each strip one turn; pinch together in center to seal. Tuck ends up to seal. Lift and stretch one end of shaped dough using spatula; curve to form cane. Cover; let rise in warm place 30 minutes.
- Lightly beat reserved egg white with 1 tablespoon water; brush over dough using a pastry brush. Bake 20-23 minutes or until deep golden brown.
- For glaze, mix powdered sugar and milk until smooth; drizzle over warm coffee cake.
- Cool 15 minutes. Cut into 1-inch slices.
- Yield: 15 servings
