  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      pkg           active dry yeast
     1/4  cup           warm water  -- 105 to 115F
   1      cup           lukewarm milk  -- scalded, then cooled
     3/4  cup           sugar
   1      teaspoon      salt
   3                    eggs
     1/2  cup           butter or margarine  -- softened
   6      cups          flour
   1                    egg

Dissolve yeast in warm water in large bowl. Stir in milk, 3/4 cup sugar,
salt, 3 eggs, margarine and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in
enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle. Turn dough onto
lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Place in greased bowl. Turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in warm
place until double, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. (Dough is ready if indentation 
remains
when touched.) Punch down dough and divide into halves. Shape each half
into round, slightly flat loaf. Place each loaf in greased round 9x1 
1/2-inch layer cake pan. Cover and let rise until double, about 1 hour.
Heat oven to 350F. Beat 1 egg slightly and brush over loaves. Sprinkle 
with 1
teaspoon sugar. Bake until loaves are golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. 
SNAIL LOAVES (CARACOIS): After dividing dough into halves, roll each half 
into a rope about 25x1 1/2-inches. Coil each to form a snail shape in 
greased round 9-inch layer cake pan. Proceed as directed.
