Orange-Cranberry Coffee Cakes Recipe

Prep: 40 min. + rising Bake: 20 min. + cooling

Yield: 24 Servings

40 20 60

Ingredients

1/2 cup sugar
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1-1/4 teaspoons salt
4 to 4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup 2% milk
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/4 cup water
1 egg
FILLING:
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
ICING:
2-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon orange juice
1/4 cup toasted chopped walnuts

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, yeast, salt and 2-1/2 cups flour. In a small saucepan, heat the milk, butter and water to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add egg; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Place cranberries in a blender; cover and process until chopped. Drain well; discard liquid from cranberries. In a small bowl, combine cranberries with remaining filling ingredients. Set aside.
Punch down dough; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half. Roll each half into a 16-in. x 10-in. rectangle; spread with filling to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up each jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; seal seams. Place in greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans; shape ends to form crescent shapes.
With kitchen scissors or a small sharp knife, cut a lengthwise slit down the center of each loaf, 1/2 in. deep and stopping 2 in. from the ends.
Cover loaves and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
Combine confectioners' sugar and orange juice; drizzle over coffee cakes. Top with walnuts; press onto icing to secure. Yield: 2 coffee cakes (12 servings each).
