1c. heavy cream
1 pack oetker whip it
dough
2-1/4c. all-purpose flour

1tsp. vanilla
3tbs. heavy whipping cream
Directions:
1. Filling:
2. Prepare the pudding as instructed on the packet, but using the amounts of sugar and milk provided above. Leave to cool, stirring occasionally. You will want to place some plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding to keep a skin from forming. When the pudding is cool, beat the heavy cream 1/2 minute. Sprinkle in the Whip it and beat until the cream is stiff. Fold the whipped cream carefully into the cold pudding.
3. Topping:
4. Melt butter. Add sugar. Add almonds, cinnamon, vanilla and whipping cream. Stirring constantly, keep over medium heat until the mixture becomes soft and spreadable. Do not brown. Cool.
5. Dough:
6. Sift flour into a large bowl, add butter and mix. Add sugar, yeast, and salt, mix. Add egg and milk, mix. Knead the dough for 15 minutes by hand or use mixer with dough hooks for 2-4 minutes. Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and rest for about 25 minutes. Shape the dough into a rectangular shape(about 10x12x and 3/8 to1/2 inch thick) on a cookie sheet, with sides. Let rise another 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 350F. Spread dough with almond topping. Bake 40 minutes. Cool.
7. To finish:
8. Slice the dough horizontally and fill with the cream. Refrigerate until serving time. This will freeze nicely until needed. Enjoy!
