Zubereitung von Povitica Polish Holiday Bread
- **Sweet Dough:**
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm milk (105-115°F), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter, and 2 large eggs, well beaten.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast in 1/4 cup warm water (105-115°F). Let stand 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add the yeast mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix well.
- Gradually add 4 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
- Add enough remaining flour (about 1-2 cups) to form a slightly sticky but manageable dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled large bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Gently punch down the dough. Let rise again for another 30 minutes.
- **Filling:**
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup milk, and 1/4 cup margarine. Heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved.
- Add 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans. Stir in 2 large eggs, well beaten.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and stir in a pinch of salt, 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 tsp ground cinnamon.
- Let the filling cool to lukewarm before using.
- **Assembly & Baking:**
- Divide the dough into three equal portions.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a very thin (1/8 inch) rectangle.
- Spread a generous layer of the cooled filling over each rectangle.
- Tightly roll each rectangle up, starting from a long side. Gently twist into a spiral shape.
- Place the spirals into three greased 8x13 inch baking pans.
- Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-45 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
