Christmas Coffee Cake
This recipe is by Fern Story, from 'Homemade Cooking
Good 'Nuff for Sharing', a cookbook published by the
Antique Gas & Steam Engine Museum.
5 Cups
Flour
2 Packages Granular Yeast
3/4 Cup Milk
1/2 Cup Warm Water
1/3 Cup Shortening
1/3 Cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1 Tbsp. Orange Juice
1 tsp. Sugar
1 tsp. Flour
1 tsp. Salt
Dissolve yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon of
flour in the warm water. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Mix
sugar, salt and shortening, and stir well. Add eggs, 2
cups flour, milk, and orange juice, and stir well.
Add
yeast mixture and mix well. Add 2 1/2 to 3 cups of
flour.
Mix and turn out on floured surface and knead well for
about 5 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl and let rise in a warm place
until it doubles (about an hour).
Punch
down and let rise again until about double the size.
Turn out on floured surface, divide into 2 parts, and
let rest for 5 minutes.
Roll out each half to fit a 10"x14" pan. Let rise for 10
minutes, then press the edge gently against the sides
and edges of the pan.
Add topping and bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes,
or until light brown.

Our Mission:
Our Mission: "Big Blend Magazine is a company based on the belief that education is the most formidable weapon that can be waged against fear, ignorance and prejudice.
It is our belief that education starts at
home and branches outward. Education leads to travel, and
travel leads to understanding, tolerance, and appreciation
of cultures and customs different to our own, and ultimately
to world peace. Our company is further based on the
principle that networking, communication, and helping others
to promote and market themselves leads to financial
stability; thus paving the way to better education, travel,
and the spirit of giving back to the community." |
