Cherry-Nut Tea Ring
(continued)
Directions (continued)
Roll into a 20-in. x 10-in. rectangle; sprinkle with filling to
within 1 in. of edges. Roll up tightly jelly-roll style, starting
with a long side; seal ends.
Place in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan; pinch ends
together to form a heart. With scissors, cut from outside edge
two-thirds of the way toward center of ring at 1-in. intervals.
Separate strips slightly; twist to allow filling to show. Cover and
let rise until doubled, about 40 minutes.
Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown, covering
with foil to prevent overbrowning during the last 10 minutes. Remove
to a wire rack to cool. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: 1
loaf (2 pounds).
