Judy/AZ (03:49:59) : Kringle (From a Danish Bakery in Racine)
3/4 cup butter
1 pkg. or cake of yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1/4 cup lukewarm milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. lemon extract
1 egg
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
Butterscotch Filling for two kringles
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup butter
Pinch of salt
Pinch of cinnamon
1/2 egg white
Divide butter in half and spread each half on waxed paper to an 8 x 8 inch square. Chill. Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add lukewarm milk, sugar, salt, lemon extract, and egg, mixing well. Add flour and mix until smooth.
Roll dough on well-floured board to an 8 x 12 inch rectangle. Place one piece of chilled butter on two-thirds of dough. Fold uncovered third of dough over the middle third, then fold the remaining third over the top. Again fold one over middle third, and fold remaining third over top, making a square of nine layers. Wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate 30 minutes. Roll dough again to an 8 x 12 inch rectangle. Add chilled butter and fold the same way. This makes 18 layers. Refrigerate 2 hours. Cut dough into two equal pieces. Lightly roll one piece at a time, until piece is about 20 x 6
inches.
To prepare filling: mix filling ingredients until smooth. Spread center third of dough with butterscotch filling, then add fruit, nuts, raisins, and so on, or fill with jam (Solo is good, too). Fold one of the long edges to the middle, moisten other edge and fold over top to cover filling. Seal well. Put kringle on greased baking sheet and form into oval shape, pressing ends of kringle together to form a continuous circle. Flatten dough with hands. Cover kringle for one hour at 70 degrees. Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool, then ice with mixture of powdered sugar and water. Kringles keep very well in the freezer, for several days in the refrigerator. The high butter content keeps them moist.
