Ease dough into pan (fold in half to lift and unfold in pan) letting excess hang over the edge. Mound cheese filling onto dough in pan and bring dough up over the filling, folding to make 8-12 evenly spaced pleats. Twist and pinch ends together to make a rough knob.

Turn chilled dough out onto floured pastry cloth and knead briefly. Divide dough into thirds. Roll out one third at a time. Roll into a large circle about 1/8 inch thick. Brush surface of dough with melted butter. Cut circle of dough into 8 pie shaped wedges. Roll up each wedge starting at the wide end. Place each roll on baking sheet and curve it into a crescent shape. (Be sure to put the pointy end on the bottom otherwise roll may start to unroll as it rises or bakes.) Brush tops of rolls with melted butter. Cover with a cloth and let rise until almost double. Bake at 350 F for 16 minutes. Note: These are fairly large rolls.

Turn dough onto well floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover, let rise in warm place until double, about 1 1/2 hours. (dough is ready if an indention remains when touched.) Grease 2 oblong pans, 13x9x2 inches. Punch down dough; divide into halves. Roll 1 half into rectangle, 12x10 inches. Spread with half of the butter. Mix 1/2 cup sugar and the cinnamon; sprinkle half the sugar-cinnamon mixture over rectangle. Roll up, beginning at wide side. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Stretch roll to make even. Cut roll into 12 slices. Place slightly apart in 1 pan. Wrap pan tightly with heavy aluminum foil. Repeat with remaining dough. Refrigerate at least 12 hours but no longer than 48 hours. (To bake immediately, do not wrap. Let rise in warm place until double, about 30 minutes. Bake as directed below.) Heat oven to 350 degrees. Remove foil from pans. Bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Frost with Powdered Sugar Frosting while warm. Makes 24 rolls. POWDERED SUGAR FROSTING: Mix 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 Tbsp. milk and 1/2 Tsp. vanilla until smooth and of spreading consistency. Frost 1 pan of rolls.

ORANGE MARMALADE ICEBOX ROLLS: Omit butter, sugar-cinnamon mixture and Powdered Sugar Frosting. Before rolling dough into rectangles, beat 2 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup orange marmalade and 1/4 cup butter, softened, until smooth and creamy.

Reduce heat to low and stir the mixture continuously with a wooden spoon [whisk] until the mixture is thick and smooth like porridge, 5 to 7 minutes [this took more like 10 minutes, and there were still lumps, but they were incorporated when the dough was mixed together later]. Add 1/3 c of molasses [I used 1/4c] and the salt and set aside to cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, dissolve yeast in lukewarm water in a large mixing bowl for 10 minutes. Stir in the whole wheat flour and the cooled cornmeal mixture. Place cranberries, orange zest and remaining molasses [I left out this molasses] in a food processor and pulse several times until berries are coarsely chopped (or chop by hand). Add to dough mixture and stir thoroughly. Add the all-purpose flour to make a soft dough. [I added more than 5 cups and it was still sticky--keep in mind it will stay sticky, and just add enough to make it manageable.] Knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turn to grease the top, and cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours [I put it in the refrigerator at this point and finished them the next morning]. Punch down and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Tear off pieces of the dough and shape into smooth balls, about 2" in diam. Place 2" apart on lightly greased cookie sheets. Let rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, 30-45 minutes. Preheat oven to 375F. Brush all over with the egg wash and sprinkle tops lightly with cornmeal. Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown. Note: The book says this yields 18 rolls. I made dough balls the size of golf balls and ended up with about 30 rolls the size of small dinner rolls. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.

Let them cool a bit, so as not to kill the yeast when they are added to the dough. If you want to scald the milk, do so, and also let it cool (it is common practice to scald milk before baking with it, though I never do.) Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the 1/4 cup of lukewarm water. Mix the cinnamon, oats, corn meal, bran, cracked wheat, buckwheat, soy flour, and rye flour. Add the rest of the water, the milk, butter, shortening, egg, and honey, and mix well. Stir in the dissolved yeast mixture. Mix in the salt, and the whole wheat flour. Stir in the white flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, until the mixture is stiff enough to knead. You'll probably have about half of it left. Remove the dough from the mixing bowl, onto a floured surface. Knead the dough, adding more white flour as necessary to keep the dough workable. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about ten minutes. It's okay if you end up using less than or more than the three cups of white flour; just use whatever it takes. Put the dough back into a bowl that's been very lightly greased. Let it rise, covered, in a still, warm place (around 85 deg. F is best, though room temperature will work) for 45 minutes, or until it has doubled in bulk. Punch the dough down, divide in half, shape into loaves, and place each half into a loaf pan which has been very lightly greased. Let rise again, for another 45 minutes, in a still, warm place, until the loaves have about doubled in bulk. Preheat the oven to 350 deg. F as the bread finishes rising. Bake the bread for 35-40 minutes, until it sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from the loaf pans, and rub the top of the loaves with some butter to give them a nice, soft, chewy crust. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.

It should become slightly foamy with a familiar "yeast" odor. No foam after 6 or so minutes and the yeast was bad or your water wrong temperature. I haven't had a yeast problem yet. In a bowl (or food processor) mix 1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour or bread flour 1/2 teaspoon salt Add the yeast mixture. If using food processor, continue running until dough forms a ball, 10-20 seconds. By hand, just jump in and mix away. If you've never done dough before, it gets a little sticky. If the dough is a little dry (ie: flour left on sides of bowl and you absolutely can't get it mixed) add 1/2 teaspoon water and try until you get it. If measured right, you shouldn't need any additional water. On a floured surface pick up dough and throw it down HARD 8-10 times (really, you can't hurt it, think of your boss...) Continue kneading for 2 minutes or so. if dough is a little sticky, dust your finger and counter with flour, but as little as possible). That it. Either rolls out by hand for an 11" pizza (14" thin or 7" thick). Bake at 500F in pre-heated oven for 8-12 minutes, the edges will turn nice golden brown when done.

Let the mixture rise in a warm place until it is light and foamy. This usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour. Check it frequently-it can really make a mess if it rises enough to overflow the bowl. (I'm sure they could make a great horror movie about a gigantic blob of bread dough that keeps getting bigger and bigger as it consumes everything in its path....) Stir in the granulated sugar, oil, molasses, anise seed and salt, and enough flour to make a stiff dough, using 2 parts rye to 1 part white. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic, adding more flour to keep it from sticking to your hands. Clean and grease the bowl. Put the dough in the bowl, turning it to grease all sides. Cover the bowl loosely with a clean towel and let the dough rise until it's doubled in bulk. Punch it down and let rise until double again. Divide the dough into three loaves and put in greased pans. (I usually make round loaves and bake them on cookie sheets.) Cover with the towel and let rise until double again. Bake for about 45 minutes at 350 deg. F. Because of the high sugar content, this bread can burn rather easily; watch it closely so it doesn't get too dark. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.
