 Categories: Breads, Spices, Dairy, Nuts
      Yield: 2 Cakes
 
  3 1/2 c  A-P flour
      3 tb Sugar
  1 1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 oz Env active dry yeast
    3/4 c  Milk
    1/4 c  Butter
      2 lg Eggs; room temperature

MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    1/3 c  Brown sugar; packed
    1/4 c  Sugar
      3 tb Butter; softened
      3 tb Maple syrup
  4 1/2 ts A-P flour
    3/4 ts Ground cinnamon
    3/4 ts Maple flavoring
    1/3 c  Walnuts; chopped

MMMMM---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------
    1/2 c  Confectioners' sugar
    1/4 ts Maple flavoring
      2 ts Milk; up to 3 ts
 
  In a large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and yeast. In a
  saucepan, heat milk and butter to 125°F/52°C. Add to dry ingredients;
  beat just until moistened. Add eggs; beat on medium for 2 minutes.
  Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough. Turn onto a
  floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 5-7 minutes. Place
  in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in
  a warm place until doubled, about 70 minutes.
  
  In a small bowl, combine the first 7 filling ingredients; beat for 2
  minutes. Punch dough down; turn onto a lightly floured surface.
  Divide in half; roll each into a 16x8" rectangle. Spread filling
  to within 1/2" of edges. Sprinkle with walnuts. Roll up jelly-roll
  style, starting with a long side.
  
  With a sharp knife, cut each roll in half lengthwise. Open halves so
  cut side is up; gently twist ropes together. Transfer to 2 greased 9"
  round baking pans. Coil into a circle. Tuck ends under; pinch to
  seal. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about
       45    minutes.
  
  Bake @ 350°F/175°C for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for
  10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. For glaze, combine the
  confectioners' sugar, maple flavoring and enough milk to reach desired
  consistency; drizzle over warm cakes.
