Here is one recipe previously posted here by bme/Australia in 2002. I hope this is helpful.
KAAK
1 tsp. Sugar 1/2 cup water 2 tsp. Yeast 6 1/2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 tsp. Baking powder 1 1/2 cups milk (warm) 5 eggs 1/4 cup melted butter 1 cup milk 1/2 cup sugar
Dissolve sugar in 1/2 cup water, add yeast and set aside for 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, place flour, sugar and baking powder. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Place 1 1/2 cups warm milk, eggs, butter and yeast mixture inside the well. Knead until flour leaves the sides of the bowl and dough is smooth. Cover with plastic sheet, then a tea towel. Leave in a warm place to rise for 30-40 minutes.
Knead again, cover and leave to rise for 30 minutes further.
Heat oven to 400F.
Cut a piece of dough the size of a walnut. Roll into a rope shape approximately 5-6 inches long, join ends together to form a ring, press ends together to secure.
Place on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes to a golden brown.
Meanwhile prepare glaze. Place 1 cup of milk in a saucepan, add sugar. Place over medium heat, stir to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat.
Dip warm Kaak in the milk and sugar glaze, Place on tray to dry.
Serve with coffee, tea or as a snack.
