      Title: Christmas Tree Loaves - Klippta Kransar
 Categories: Breads, Holiday, Scandinavia
      Yield: 3 loaves
 
      1 pk Active dry yeast
    1/4 c  Warm water
    1/2 c  Butter
  1 1/2 c  Hot scalded milk
    1/2 c  Sugar
      2    Eggs; unbeaten
      2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts French's Cardamom
      6 c  All Purpose Flour, sifted
      1 c  Sugar
    1/2 c  Nuts; chopped
      4 ts Cinnamon
      3 tb Butter
           Vanilla Glaze
           Red and green cherries
           Colored Sugars
           Nuts (additional)
 
  Makes 3 Christmas trees.

  Soften yeast in warm water. Melt butter in hot scalded milk in large
  bowl. Cool to lukewarm. Stir in sugar, eggs, salt and cardamom (if
  desired) and softened yeast. Add gradually 6 to 7 cups flour to make
  a stiff dough. Knead on floured surface 5 to 7 minutes. Place in
  greased bowl and cover. Let rise in warm place (85 degrees to 90
  degrees F.) until light and doubled in size, 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours.
  Punch down dough; cover. Let rise in warm place for 30 minutes.
  Combine sugar, 1/2 cups nuts, chopped, and 4 teaspoons cinnamon. Melt
  butter and set aside.

  Divide dough into 3 parts. Roll out 1 part on floured surface to a
  triangle 15 inches at the base, 10 inches high and 1/4 inch thick;
  shape with hands and rolling pin. Brush generously with melted
  butter. Sprinkle with 1/3 of sugar mixture. Roll up triangle,
  starting with one of the bottom corners and rolling along the base
  to form a triangle-shaped roll. Place on greased baking sheet.
  Flatten triangle. Cut deep gashes at 3/4 inch intervals down each
  side almost to center. Stretch and fold each cut section back on
  its side to form a "branch" . Cut off bottom "branch" on each side
  to form "base" of tree. Cover. Repeat with remaining dough. Let
  rise in warm place until light, 30 to 45 minutes. Bake in moderate
  oven (350 degrees) 20 to 25 minutes. Frost with Vanilla Glaze.
  Decorate "branches" with red and green cherries or Colored
  Sugars and nuts.
  
  For Fanned Cinnamon Rolls: Use recipe for Christmas Tree Loaves.
  Divide dough into 2 parts. Roll out 1 part to an 18 x 10-inch
  rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with half the sugar
  mixture. Roll as for jelly roll, starting with 18-inch side. Cut
  into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Make cuts down through roll to 1/2 inch of
  opposite side. Spread slices, overlapping in fan shape. Place on
  greased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. Let rise 30 to
  45 minutes. Bake 15 to 20 minutes. Makes about 2 dozen.
