Ingredients:

1 package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm, (110F) water
1 cup warm, (110F) milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, beaten
2 tsp vanilla
5 cup King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose
1 tsp salt
1 cup finely ground pecans
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 tbsp water

Instructions:

In a large bowl, stir yeast into water to soften. Add milk, sugar, eggs,
vanilla, and 2 cups of flour. Beat vigorously for 2 minutes. This is a
sponge, and has the consistency of cake batter. Cover and let rise for 45
minutes.

Add salt, pecans and 1 cup flour to the sponge. Beat for 1 minute.
Gradually
add flour, a little at a time, until you have a dough stiff enough to
knead.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead, adding flour as
necessary,
until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Put dough into an oiled bowl. Turn
once to coat the entire ball of dough with oil. Cover with towel and let
rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Turn dough out onto work surface. Divide into 40 equal pieces. Roll each
piece into an 8-inch-long rope. Pinch the ends of one rope together to
form
a circle. Take another rope and slip it through the first circle before
pinching the ends. You now have two circles joined together to form one
roll.

Place on parchment-lined baking sheets. Cover and let rise 45 minutes.
Bake
in a preheated 375F oven for 15 minutes, or until done.

Combine confectioners' sugar with water in a shallow bowl. As soon as
bread
is done, remove from baking sheets and dip the tops into the
confectioners'
sugar mixture. Or, use a pastry brush to brush tops of rolls with icing.
Place on a rack until icing is set, about 30 minutes. Makes 20 individual
breads
