Ingredients
- Sweet bread dough.
- Filling:
- 6 oz/150 g butter,
- 6 oz/150 g confectioner's sugar,
- vanilla,
- 3 tablespoons cubed sugared orange peel
Directions
Mix the butter with the sugar and vanilla until creamy. Refrigerate.
Roll a square shaped sheet of dough, about a finger thick.
Then spread the butter mixture, uniformly, over the dough.
Sprinkle the orange peel on top.
Then fold the dough three ways (three-fold), so that the right third comes over the left third. Cut it lengthwise in three equal strips and braid.
Join the ends securely and arrange the braid in a round pan that was covered with buttered paper. Let it rise a little in the pan and then set into the oven, at low heat, until well risen, then at medium heat.
Remove from the pan after is has cooled off.
