Ingredients:

  • 1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110o to 115o)
  • 4-1/2 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup warm 2% milk (110o to 115o)
  • filling:
  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • icing:
  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 2 to 3 tbsp 2% milk

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Stir in the yeast mixture, milk and egg yolk; beat until smooth (dough will be very soft). Do not knead. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Punch dough down. Turn onto a well-floured surface; divide in half. Return one portion to the refrigerator. Roll remaining portion into an 18-in. x 6-in. rectangle. Beat egg white until stiff peaks form; brush half down the center of rectangle. Combine pecans and brown sugar; sprinkle half over dough.
  3. Fold sides of dough over filling, overlapping by 1-1/2 in.; pinch seam to seal. Carefully place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Shape into a U-shape; pinch ends to seal. Repeat with remaining dough, egg white and filling. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  4. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Combine confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve desired consistency; drizzle over kringles. Yield: 2 kringles (12 servings each).
