1/3 cup warm water (105º to 115ºF)
1 package Fleischmann's® Active Dry Yeast
1/3 cup warm milk (105º to 115ºF)
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
3 cups all-purpose flour (3 to 3 1/2 cups)
1 egg
GLAZE
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon orange juice
Servings: 16
1. Place warm water in large, warm bowl. Sprinkle in yeast; stir until dissolved. Add warm milk, butter, sugar, orange peel, salt, mace and 1 cup flour; blend well. Stir in egg and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
2. Punch dough down. Remove dough to lightly floured surface. Remove 1/4 of dough; roll to 18-inch rope. Reserve. Divide remaining dough in half. Roll each half to 30-inch rope; join to make one long rope. Wrap long rope loosely around small rope (start wrapping at center of small rope and work out to each end). Pinch ends to seal. Place loaf on greased baking sheet. Curve ends to make crescent shape. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.
3. Bake at 350ºF for 35 minutes or until done. Remove from sheet; cool on wire rack. Makes 1 loaf. Brush with Honey Orange Glaze.
