1 cup cornmeal |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon salt |
1/2 cup butter |

4 cups sifted flour |
2 eggs, beaten |
1/4 cup sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water. 2. Place the cornmeal, sugar, salt and butter in a large bowl. 3. Add heated milk and stir occasionally, until the butter melts. 4. Cool to lukewarm. 5. Beat in 1 cup flour and eggs, then add the yeast. 6. Beat in the remaining flour. 7. Mixture will very stiff. 8. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled (approximately 1 hour). 9.
