Directions
Soften yeast in water.
Cream butter, salt and sugar.
Add slightly beaten eggs, lemon juice, spice, milk (or half water and half canned milk) and soaked yeast.
Stir in flour, keeping dough softer than for loaf bread.
Knead on a lightly floured pastry cloth.
Place in a greased bowl and brush top lightly with fat.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk.
Shape into a long roll about 1 inch in diameter.
Coil loosely into greased 9 inch layer pan or an 8x8x2 inch pan, beginning at the outer edge.
Mix ingredients for Honey Topping and brush on dough.
Let it rise until doubled in bulk.
Bake at 350~F for 30 min.
Cool slightly, dribble with icing made by adding boiling water 1 tablespoon at a time to powdered sugar.
Add just enough water so that the icing flows freely from a spoon. Add vanilla.
