Kringla

This is a Norwegian Sweet Roll. This is a must at the Tvete Christmas’s. Easily doubled.

Ingredients

1 cup sugar	1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup margarine	1 tsp vanilla
1 egg	3 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda	1 tsp salt
1/2 cup evaporated milk	1 tsp baking powder

Directions
Dissolve baking soda in the evaporated milk. Cream sugar, margarine, egg, adding ingredients alternately with buttermilk and soda. Add vanilla. Chill over night, at least 12 hours.

Drop 1 tsp dough on a lightly floured surface. Don't use to much flour as it will get tough. Roll pencil thin. Form figure eight’s.

Bake on a greased cookie sheet at 375ºF for 10 minutes till lightly browned.

Starting from the long side, carefully roll up dough; pinch edges and ends well to seal. Carefully transfer to prepared baking sheet, curving dough to fit and form a crescent shape. Cover and let rise in a warm place about 45 minutes or till nearly double.

Bake in a 350º F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or till brown; cover with foil for the last 10 to 15 minutes to prevent over browning, if necessary. Remove from pan. Cool on rack.

Yield 40 - 50 rolls
