cup Sugar. In another bowl beat 3 egg yolks, 1 teaspoon vanilla and sour
cream; add yeast; add scalded milk and sweet butter which was added to the
milk and cooled. Add this to the flour bowl and knead to a soft silky
dough, not sticky. Let rise in a greased bowl until double in bulk. Make
sure the dough is soft as it has to stretch.
 
On floured cloth roll dough to about 1/4 to 1/2 inch in thickness; stretch
gently so it won't break. Stretch oblone bout 30 x 20 inches (use rolling
pin if necessary) and fill with following filling.
 
FILLING: Scald milkj with butter. In bowl add ground nuts, honey,
vanilla, Sugar and scant of salt (that's what it says! -KM), then add
scaled milk with butter. Mix, then add stiffly beaten egg whites. If
thick, add a little more milk. Spread on dough like you would for nut
roll and roll like a jelly roll (make as sweet as desired). Grease
roasting pan 4 to 6 inches in depth and fill pan; start at one edge of
pan; make a "U" shape. Do not cut if roll is longer; turn again. Brush
with milk. Prick with knife on top for air bubbles. Let stand 1 hour.
