Cool to room temperature. , In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sour cream mixture and eggs. Beat until smooth. Gradually stir in flour to form a soft dough (dough will be very soft). Cover and refrigerate overnight. , Punch dough down. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead 5-6 times. Divide into fourths. Roll each piece into a 12x8-in. rectangle. In a large bowl, combine filling ingredients until well blended. Spread over each rectangle to within 1 in. of edges., Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams and ends to seal. Place seam side down on greased baking sheets. Cut six X's on top of each loaf. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 1 hour., Preheat oven to 375°. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. In a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla; drizzle over warm loaves. Sprinkle with almonds if desired. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Combine the milk and butter in a microwave safe bowl and heat until butter is melted. In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk mixture with the sugar and salt and let cool. In a small bowl, combine the water and yeast and let foam. When the milk mixture is cooled a bit, add the eggs and yeast (the point of the cooling is to not kill the yeast, so don't let it get cold). With a dough hook, mix in the flour. (If using a wooden spoon and elbow grease, mix in the flour and then knead on a floured surface until dough is smooth and soft, about 5 to 10 minutes). Cover and let rise until double in bulk; about 1 to 1½ hours. After rising, punch down and divide in half. Roll out on a large jelly roll pan to fit the length of the pan and almost the width. In a bowl, mix the filling ingredients on medium speed. Spread the filling down the middle of each cake and either fold over the outer halves or cut strips and braid it over the filling...it's your call. In a bowl, mix the streusel ingredients with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly. Sprinkle the streusel equally on top of the two coffee cakes. Cover and let rise another 20 minutes and preheat your oven to 375°F. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. When cooled, dust with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Beat 1 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup butter, and 1 egg in a bowl until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla extract; mix well. Stir in 3 cups flour, baking soda, and baking powder until mixture comes together in a sticky dough. Spread half the dough evenly into prepared baking dish.
• Beat cream cheese, 1/2 cup white sugar, and 1 egg in another bowl until smooth. Spoon mixture into baking dish over dough. Drop remaining half of dough by spoonfuls over cream cheese mixture.
• Mix pecans, brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and 1/3 cup butter in a bowl until mixture resembles a coarse crumble; sprinkle over dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and lemon juice until smooth; set aside. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 1 cup white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream, mixing just until incorporated. Pour half of batter into prepared pan. Spoon cream cheese mixture on top of batter to within 1/2 inch of pan edge. Spoon remaining batter over filling, spreading to pan edge. In a small bowl, combine chopped nuts, 2 tablespoons white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle over batter in pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a serving plate and serve warm.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Melt butter.
• Sift flour with 3/4 C of the sugar and the salt into a large bowl.
• Beat egg yolks until thick and light; blend in the sour cream and melted butter; stir in the dissolved yeast.
• Gradually stir the egg yolk mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing to make a soft, smooth dough. Turn out on a lightly floured board and knead for 5 minutes, or uintil the dough is smooth. Turn into a bowl, cover, and let rise until almost doubled in bulk.
• Prepare cheese filling. Cream the cheese until light and blend in the remaining 1/2 C sugar. Add the whole eggs, one at a time, and beat until smooth. Blend in vanilla.
• Punch down dough and knead a few minutes. Lightly flour a board; roll out dough into a large circle, about 18 inches in diameter, and lay it over a greased 3-quart ring mold (you may use two 9" ring molds. Roll 1/2 dough 13" thick for each 9" ring mold). Fit the dough down into the bottom and the sides of the ring mold, being careful not to poke holes in it, and let it hang over the outside. Pour in the cheese filling (1/2 cheese fill for each 9" ring mold).
• Lift outside edges of the dougn, and lap it over the filling, sealing to the inside ring of dough. Cut a cross in the dough which covers the center of the ring mold and fold each triangle formed back over the ring, completely encasing the filling.
• Let rise until doubled in bulk or until the dough comes to the top of the pan.
• Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees) for 40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. (For 9" ring mold, bake for 30 minutes.) Let cool for 10 minutes, then turn out with top side down onto a rack.
• When bread ring is cool, heat jam until it runs easily; carefully spoon jam over the ring. When set, dust lightly with powdered sugar by shaking about 2 tbsp sugar through a sieve. To serve, slice the ring in 1" wedges.
