Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2/3 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 cup dried tart cherries -- divided
1/4 cup caoarsely chopped pecans
1 loaf (14-16 oz.) frozen white bread dough -- thawed
2 Tablespoons butter or margarine -- melted
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
In small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and milk; mix well. Pour into 9
inch deep-dish pie pan. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cherries and pecans evenly over
sugar mixture.
On lightly floured surface, roll bread dough into 12x8 inch rectangle; brush
with melted butter. In small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon;
sprinkle over dough. Top with remaining 1/2 cup cherries. Roll up
rectangle, jelly roll style, starting from long side; pinch to seal edges.
With sharp knife, cut roll into 12 slices.
Place slices on top of mixture in pan. Let rise, covered, in warm place 30
minutes or until nearly double. (Or, cover with waxed paper, then with
plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 to 24 hours. Before baking, let chilled rolls
stand, covered, 20 minutes at room temperature.)
Bake, uncovered, in preheated 375 oven 20-25 minutes (25-30 minutes for
chilled rolls) or until golden brown. If necessary, cover rolls with foil
during last 10 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Let cool in pan 1 to 2
minutes. Invert onto serving platter. Serve warm. Makes 12 rolls.
