14 cups all purpose flour 1 tb salt 1 lb sweet butter
12 egg yolks

Scald milk and cool to lukewarm. Add yeast, 1 c.
sugar and 2 c flour. This is your sponge. Let it rise
about 30 minutes. In a large bowl, sift in the rest of
the flour, salt and remaining sugar. With your
fingertips, work butter into the dry ingredients, then
add yolks and the yeast sponge. Stir, then work with
your hands until quite thick. Knead the dough on a
board sprinkled with flour until it becomes smooth and
elastic. You may have to add more flour to make for
easier handling. Cover and let rise about 1 - 1 /2
hours. Punch down and knead again for a few minutes.
Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.

POWDERED SUGAR GLAZE

2 cups powdered sugar 1 tsp vanilla 1/4 cups hot
