POTICA
This is a wonderful bread from Slovenia with a sweet, nutty filling. Due to the spelling and pronunciation (paw-tee'-tzah) it's very hard to find the recipe.

Steps:
- In a small mixing bowl, dissolve yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 3 tablespoons of the flour in warm milk. Mix well, and let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl cream the butter with the remaining sugar. Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the yeast mixture, remaining milk, 4 cups of flour and the salt; mix well. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
- Lightly grease one or two cookie sheets. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and roll Out to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness. Spread each piece with melted butter, honey, raisins, walnuts and cinnamon. Roll each piece up like a jelly roll and pinch the ends. Place seam side down onto the prepared baking sheets. Let rise until double in volume. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 60 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Steps:
- Combine warm water and yeast together in a large bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
- Stir 3/4 cup lukewarm milk, white sugar, shortening, 1 egg, and salt into yeast mixture. Mix flour into yeast mixture until a soft, easy to handle dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and let stand for 10 minutes. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Form dough into a ball.
- Place dough in a large, lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover bowl with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, or until a hole remains when your finger is pressed deeply into the dough, about 2 hours.
- Punch down dough and turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into ball and let dough rest for 15 minutes.
- Beat brown sugar, butter, and 1 egg together in a bowl until creamy. Add 1/4 cup milk, vanilla extract, and lemon extract; stir until smooth. Stir walnuts into the filling mixture until walnuts are completely incorporated.
- Roll dough on a large, floured cloth into a 20x30-inch rectangle. Spread walnut filling evenly over the top of the dough, spreading to the edges. Roll the rectangle up along the long edge like a jelly roll and pinch edges to seal. Coil the roll into a snail-shape.
- Grease a 9x13x2-inch baking sheet. Place shaped dough on the prepared sheet and let rise until an impression remains when the dough is gently pressed, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.

POVOTICA
This eastern European Croatian sweet bread or coffee cake is enjoyed during Christmas and Easter. Povotica (Povo-teets-a) is out of this world delicious, no other way to describe it. My cousin makes this bread every Christmas, and I like it for a coffee or tea party.

AMAZING TRADITIONAL CROATIAN POVITICA
This bread is very popular in the Kansas City area where most people buy it instead of making it. Since I'm moving from the area I looked up recipes for it and found this one from Phyllis at rootsweb.com I've modified it a bit and added more filling suggestions at the end. I'm posting this in reponse to a request on the boards.

Steps:
- For the dough, dissolve the yeast in the water along with 1 teaspoon of the sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, vanilla, salt, egg and remaining sugar, and add the mixture to the yeast. Slowly add the flour and knead, working in the butter, until the mixture forms a smooth ball. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for about 1 1/2 hours. Do not punch down.
- For the filling, combine the walnuts, melted butter, both sugars, honey, 2 eggs and all but 1 tablespoon of the whipping cream, adding the cream gradually until the mixture is the consistency of honey.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.. On a table or other flat surface that is at least 3 feet by 5 feet, spread a clean sheet so that the edges hang slightly over the sides. Roll out the dough to form a rectangle and then stretch and pull it until it is about 3 feet by 5 feet. Smear the filling on top. Roll up the dough, starting at the narrower (3-foot) end. Cut into three equal-size rolls. Grease a rectangular baking dish, 9 inches by 13 inches, and cover with aluminum foil, shiny side up. Now grease the foil. Place the three potica on the foil, placing strips of foil between the pastries to keep them separated. Combine the egg yolk with the remaining tablespoon of cream, and brush the mixture over the potica. Bake in a 325-degree oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until golden brown.

- For the dough, tip the flour and sugar into the bowl of a freestanding mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add the salt into one side of the bowl and the yeast to the other.
- Tip the dough into a lightly oiled mixing bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise until at least doubled in size – about one hour. Butter a 1kg (2lb) loaf tin.
- For the filling, place the butter and milk in a small pan and heat gently until the butter has melted. Remove from the heat.
- Place the walnuts, vanilla seeds, sugar and cocoa powder into the bowl of a food processor and blend to a sandy powder. Add the egg yolk, milk and butter mixture and pulse to combine.
- To assemble, spread a clean bed sheet over a kitchen table and dust with flour. Turn the risen dough out onto the sheet and roll out the dough into a large 50x30cm (20x12in) rectangle.
- Dust your hands with flour and ease them underneath the dough. Using the backs of your hands, stretch the dough out from the centre until very thin and translucent (you should be able to see the sheet through the dough).
- Taking care not to tear the dough, spread the filling over the dough until evenly covered. If the filling has been standing for a long time and is too thick, add a little warm milk to loosen it.
- Starting at the long edge of the dough, lift the sheet and gently roll the dough up tightly, like a Swiss roll.
- Carefully lift the dough and place one end in the bottom corner of the greased loaf tin. Ease the roll into the base of the tin to form a long ‘U’ shape, then double back laying the roll over the first ‘U’ shape to form a second ‘U’ shape on top.
