2 packages dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (105° to 115°)

2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup shortening, melted
1 cup warm buttermilk (105° to 115°)
2 eggs, beaten

Directions

1

Dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand 5 minutes.
2

Combine 1/3 cup sugar, salt, shortening, and buttermilk in a large bowl. Stir in dissolved yeast and eggs. Gradually add flour, stirring until a soft dough is formed. Place in a well greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 2 hours or until doubled in bulk.
3

Punch dough down. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and roll into an 18-inch square.
4

Combine remaining ingredients; spread mixture over square. Roll up jellyroll fashion; moisten edges, and pinch to seal. Cut roll into 1-inch-thick slices. Place slices, cut side down, in layers in a well-greased 10-inch tube pan.
