Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup 2% milk
  • 2 packages (1/4 oz each) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110o to 115o)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • filling:
  • 1/4 cup 2% milk
  • 3 tbsp plus 1 cup sugar, divided
  • confectioners' sugar , optional

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter with the milk; cool. Stir in egg yolks until blended. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt; add butter mixture and yeast mixture. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes (dough will be sticky). Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  3. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the nuts, dates, milk, 3 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. Cook and stir until mixture forms a paste. Transfer to a large bowl.
  4. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form. Fold into nut mixture.
  5. Cut dough in half; on a floured surface, roll one portion into a 20-inch square. Spread with half of the filling. Roll up tightly jelly-roll style. Place, seam side up, in a greased 10-in. tube pan. Repeat with second portion; place, seam side down, over the first roll-up in the pan (layers will bake as one loaf).
  6. Bake at 350° for 60-70 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
