- 4 egg whites
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons vanilla extract

directions
- In very large bowl, dissolve yeast in water and let set until foamy, about 10 minutes.
- Add melted butter, salt, egg yolks, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Mix well.
- Add flour to mix slowly until it forms nice dough. Should not be tacky. Add a bit more flour if needed.
- Cover bowl and let raise in warm place 1 hour.
- In mean time, beat egg whites with mixer until frothy or foamy. Add 1 cup sugar, slowly until stiff peak forms. Fold in vanilla, cinnamon, and walnuts. You can use Black walnuts if preferred.
- When dough has risen, cut into 2 equal parts. Roll out on floured surface until you get a 12 X 18 (give or take) sheet. Spread nut mixture onto surface and leave 1 inch space all around. Roll like you would a jellyroll or pinwheel. Use water at last open area to seal, fold or tuck under slightly left to right sides. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet length-wise and repeat with second one.
- Preheat oven 375º degrees.
- Once both are placed on cookie sheet, poke with fork in about 5 areas on each to let dough breath. Cover with light towel and let rise about 15-20 minutes.
- Remove towel, place in center rack in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Should be golden brown.
- Brush with melted butter if preferred.
- When completely cooled, cut into 1" slices and pat with butter, serve with coffee (if preferred).

My Mom didn't like more than one cook (herself) in the kitchen at any given time, so I taught myself to cook after I lived on my own. I never liked the same old stuff so I had started to experiment with recipes. I found loads of recipes to play with throughout the years, even before the internet (grin). 15 years ago I met a man who loves to cook as much as me. We have been having loads of fun with the recipes that we find. We only post what we find a delight to make and eat.
