- 1 frozen loaf of Wheat Bread (thawed)
- 3 tbsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Butter
- 1-1/2 cups Raisins
- 1/2 cup Brandy
- 2 cups Confectioners Sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
Thaw wheat bread loaf until pliable. Simmer raisins in 1/2 cup of Brandy for 15 minutes or until plump. Sprinkle the work area lightly with flour. Work the loaf lightly
with floured hands until 1/2 inch thick.
Brush the 1/2 inch thick loaf with butter, sprinkle cinnamon and layer the raisins. Roll the loaf until you have a rope shape.
Fold rope shape in half and braid into a single loaf, pinching the ends to seal. Bring pinched ends together in a wreath and overlap and pinch again until sealed.
Place on a dish wide enough to accommodate the size, cover with plastic and put in a warm place to rise. When the wreath has doubled in size, bake in a 350 degree oven until
golden brown.
Using the confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk, mix together briskly until a glossy icing has formed. Pour over wreath while it is still hot.
Pour the coffee (milk for the kids) and enjoy this easy dessert while warm.
