Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup warm water (real warm to almost hot - 130 degrees, but not hotter)
  • 1 package yeast (or 2 1/4 tsp yeast from jar)
  • Pour water into small bowl and add yeast - stirring to dissolve well. Add a pinch of white granulated sugar and stir to "proof" the yeast. Let sit for about 5 minutes till yeast bubbles and at least doubles in size. Then add yeast to these next ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup lukewarm milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg (room temp)
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 2 cups flour
  • Mix until smooth. Add enough additional flour (up to an additional 1 1/2 or 2 cups) to handle easily and mix with your hands. Turn onto lightly floured board and knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Round up in greased bowl, greased side up and cover with a damp cloth to let rise. Rise in a warm place until double in size - about 1 1/2 hours. Punch down and let rise again about 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Roll dough into oblong 15x9 shape. Spread soft butter all over and then sprinkle the following over the dough:
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • Roll up dough longwise seam-side down. Then bring ends together to form a circle and pinch edges together. Make cuts 2/3 of the way into the ring every 1 inch around. Turn each section onto its side. Let rise again about 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Bake at 375 for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Spread top with icing:
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • Cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Mix to a spreading consistency and drizzle over warm ring.
