From Family Cookbook-Aunt Dorthy’s Nut Rolls With Filling

Looking for the Light

The family cookbook contains recipes, my Granny’s & Gramps used often and is the type of food I grew up on. Many with veggies and tomatoes from the garden. Good ole Southern food like my Gramps dumplings, to Grannies pecan pie.

This is from my husband’s Aunt Dorthy’s recipes who writes BEST at the top of the card.

Recipe

1 pkg yeast in 1/4 cup warm water and 1 TSP sugar

Let stand 5 minutes

Sift 4 cups flour, 4 TBS sugar and 3/4 TSP salt

Melt 1/2 TBS of butter

Add in 1 cup of canned milk

4 eggs yolks beaten

Pour over flour

Add yeast

Knead

Cover

Place in refrigerator overnight or for 5 hours

Divide into 4 sections on a lightly floured surface to approx 10″x13″

Size to fill

Roll up

Let rise

Bake 350 degrees for 25 minutes

Filling

Beat 4 eggs whites with 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 cup ground walnuts

Okay, from here my guess is that you get an icing tube, add the filling insert into the roll, and by squeezing until you see the filling has spread in the roll.

This sounds great because I like walnuts, which are so good for you. This one I’ll have to try.

If you make the recipe, please provide feedback on your thoughts or what the recipe brings to mind.

    1. It’s a great gift and brings back so many good memories. I have many more but they are more complex and take longer to write. I’ll get around the rest. My new med is settling in and it’s promising. I’ve had good cognition and mood the past couple of days. Hey, thanks for staying a while and catching up on my post. I really appreciate you. I don’t recall a post from you lately, busy? :)

      1. I’m glad the new medication is promising! We have been busy wrapping up the end of the school year. I posted this morning, though. I hope you have a wonderful day.

    1. That’s what I thought. I have so many more of my Grandparents recipes they have extensive ingredient list and more complex than posted. I will take the time someday to post my Gramps mother’s recipe for Glory Cake. There is a reason it has the name. It was Gramps favorite. :)
