Steps:
- Heat the milk and the butter together in a medium saucepan, until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and add them warm water. The mixture should be around 110 degrees F (43 degrees C).
- In a large bowl combine 1 cup of the flour, yeast, salt, anise seed and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Beat in the warm milk mixture then add the eggs and orange zest and beat until well combined. Stir in 1/2 cup of flour and continue adding more flour until the dough is soft.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. This will take about 1 to 2 hours. Punch the dough down and shape it into a large round loaf with a round knob on top. Place dough onto a baking sheet, loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until just about doubled in size.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven let cool slightly then brush with glaze.
- To make glaze: In a small saucepan combine the 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes. Brush over top of bread while still warm. Sprinkle glazed bread with white sugar.

Steps:
- 1. Combine the first 5 dry ingredients plus 1 1/2 cups of flour in a large bowl.
- 2. In a small sauce pan, stir the milk, water, and butter over medium heat until all the butter is melted. Pour the mixture into your dry ingredients and mix well with a wooden spoon (or use a mixer).
- 3. Add the four eggs and mix well.
- 4. Then slowly add the remaining 4 cups of flour, constantly stirring to combine the ingredients.
- Once the dough is only slightly sticky, place it on a floured surface and knead until smooth.
- Put the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel and set aside in a warm place for approximately an hour and a half to allow the dough to rise.
- 7. Prepare two cookie sheets by covering them with aluminum foil.
- Once the dough has doubled in size, place it on a floured surface and punch it back down. Then spread the dough and divide it into four or five equal portions.
- 9. Take one portion and divide it again into four equal parts and begin shaping each one into a round loaf.
- 10. Repeat until you have 12 small loaves, placing six on each cookie sheet.
- Divide the remaining dough into 12 equal parts and begin creating the top design. Use each part to roll out the bone-shaped pieces and lay across the top of the loaf, criss-crossing them. Top each loaf with a smaller round piece of dough.
- 12. Set the loaves aside for another hour to rise again. I just placed them on top of the stove while the oven was heating up. Be sure to cover them with cling wrap or a hand towel.
- 13. Place both cookie sheets in a 350 degree oven for 15 - 18 minutes.
- While the loaves are baking, you can prepare your simple, sweet glaze.
- For Glaze.
- Combine the sugar and orange juice in a sauce pan and boil for approximately 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove and set aside.
- When the loaves have finished baking, brush the glaze over them while they are still warm.

PAN DE MUERTO (MEXICAN BREAD OF THE DEAD)
This recipe is from "The Rustic Table" by Constance Snow. This is my favorite Pan de Muerto recipe because of the nice orangey flavor.

Steps:
- For the Bread:.
- Pour warm water into a 1 quart bowl and sprinkle yeast over water. Set aside in a warm place that is free of draft until bubbly, about 5 minutes.
- Stir 1 cup of flour to make a sponge. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside until the sponge doubles in volume, about 1 hour.
- Scrape the sponge into the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat in anise seeds, orange zest, butter, orange liqueur, sugar, salt, eggs and 2 cups of flour. Beat the batter on medium speed for about 5 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and add, one 1/4 cup at a time, the remaining 1 1/2 cups of flour until it forms a very soft dough that cleans the side of the bowl.
- Knead with hook for 4 minutes (dough will be smooth and very soft, but it should not be sticky, if needed add more flour by the tablespoon to preventing sticking). Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth and set aside to rise in a warm place free of draft until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hour.
- Grease 2 8-inches round cake pans. Gently deflate dough and divide in half, (dough will be very soft). Carefully transfer each half to a greased cake pan, turning the edges under to smooth the top as best you can. Cover the pans loosely with plastic wrap, then with damp cloths and let stand in a warm place until dough rises to the top of pan, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Bake bread until hollow when thumped, about 35 to 40 minutes. Immediately remove the loaves from pans and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
- For Glaze:.
- Stir everything together until smooth, add more orange juice if necessary to reach spread consistency.
- Spread glaze over cooled loaves and sprinkle with toppings.

- In the microwave, heat the milk to 100 to 110 degrees F (38 to 43 degrees C), 35 to 40 seconds. Mix in the yeast and the 1 tablespoon sugar. Set the yeast aside for 10 minutes until bubbling.
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/3 cup (67 g) sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, salt, and allspice.
- Fit the stand mixer with the dough hook. Pour the yeast mixture into the bowl, turn the speed to low, and pour in the orange juice. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Punch the dough down and let it rest for 5 minutes. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions (about 115 g each), and form into balls. Evenly space 6 of the balls on one baking sheet, then use your palm to flatten them.
- To form the crossbones, take the remaining 2 portions of dough and divide each one into 3 portions (about 39 g each), for a total of 6 small portions.
- For each skull and crossbone set, use one of the small dough portions. Pull off 5 grams of the dough and roll it into a smooth ball (the “skull”) and place it on the empty lined sheet pan.
- Brush the risen rolls with the egg wash, then gently take the crossbones and crisscross them on top of each roll, gently brushing each piece with egg wash to hold them all together.
