3/4 c. milk
3 tbsp. shortening
3 tbsp. sugar
2 3/4 c. flour, sifted
3/4 tsp. salt
1 cake yeast (or 1 env. dry yeast)
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Butter
Cinnamon sugar
Candied fruits
Confectioners' sugar icing

Scald milk, add shortening, sugar and salt. When cooled, add yeast, beaten egg and flour. Turn out on floured board and knead until silky smooth. Cover with towel and let rise until double.

Roll out in an oval, brush with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and small jar of candied fruit. Roll up like a jelly roll, place on greased cookie sheet seam side down, and curve ends so the roll forms a crescent. Let rise until double. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. While still warm, ice with confectioners' sugar icing and decorate with more candied fruit, if desired.
