FILLED COFFEE RING 
1 recipe Basic Roll Dough
2 tbsp. butter, melted
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. chopped pecans
1/3 c. sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 c. powdered sugar
1 1/2 tbsp. milk

Roll dough in 21 x 7 inch rectangle on lightly floured surface. Brush butter evenly over dough, leaving 1 inch margin. Combine raisins, chopped pecans, 1/3 cup sugar, and cinnamon; sprinkle mixture over the dough. Roll up jelly-roll fashion, beginning at long side. Pinch edges to seal. Place roll on large greased baking sheet, seam side down; shape into a ring and pinch ends to seal. Using kitchen shears, make cuts in dough every inch around ring, cutting 2/3 of the way through roll at each cut. Gently turn each piece of dough on its side, slightly overlap slices. Cover ring; let rise for 45 minutes until golden brown. Combine powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle over warm bread.
