Steps:
- 1. Mix together the first four ingredients as for pastry and set aside.
- 2. Set yeast in warm water and sugar, set aside for 10 minutes. Scald milk, cool and add egg. Add yeast to egg and milk and mix. Make a well in the pastry mixture, add the liquid all at once and mix thoroughly. Cover tightly in bowl with waxed paper and damp cloth and refrigerate at least 2 hours, no longer than 48 hrs.
- 3. Remove from fridge, flour board well and roll out paste to rectangle. Cut into 1" wide x 12" long strips (I use a pizza cutter). Twist and make into a circular shape. Place on greased or parchment papered cookie sheet and let rise 1 1/2 hours. Bake 12-15 minutes at 400F. Frost and sprinkle with your choice of nuts or coconut. toasted coconut is my personal favorite.
- 4. We used a very thin frosting of icing sugar and milk.
BUTTERHORNS
Butterhorns fall into two camps: savory or sweet. These are the latter, filled with a tender mince of nuts and topped with an almond-flavored frosting. Sweet butterhorns are a favorite of the in-house bakeries at the Bavarian Inn and Zehnder's of Frankenmuth, the two big all-you-can-eat chicken dinner restaurants in Frankenmuth, Mich. This recipe comes from Dorothy Zehnder, a founder of the Bavarian Inn. Tucking in the corners of each butterhorn before rolling helps contain the filling during baking.

Steps:
- Make the dough: Combine flour, butter, sugar and salt in a large mixing bowl. Using a pastry blender or your fingertips, cut butter into flour, until the butter is the size of small peas.
- In a medium bowl, stir the yeast into the lukewarm milk, then add beaten egg yolks and almond extract. Pour yeast mixture into the flour mixture and stir lightly, handling as gently as pie crust, until the shaggy mass comes together in a sticky ball. Cover dough with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator overnight.
- Make the filling: The day you plan to bake the butterhorns, combine the sugar, almonds, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, flour and almond extract in a separate medium bowl. It should resemble a wet sand with bits of nuts. If the filling is dry, add another tablespoon of cream. Set aside.
- Assemble the butterhorns: Lightly grease 3 baking sheets. Remove pastry dough from the refrigerator and divide dough into three equal rounds (about 13 ounces/365 grams each). Keep the other rounds refrigerated while you work with one piece. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 16-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Cut each circle into 12 wedges, like you're cutting a pizza. Place 1 heaping teaspoon of filling just inside the curved edge of the wedge, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
- Fold the closest two corners over the filling to avoid leakage, then roll tightly all the way up to the point. (It should look like a little croissant.) Arrange pieces on a greased pan 2 inches apart, 12 butterhorns per pan, making sure that the point is tucked under to prevent it from unrolling while rising. Repeat with the remaining dough rounds. Let horns rise, uncovered, in a warm location until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- About 30 minutes before you're ready to bake, heat the oven to 365 degrees and make the frosting: Combine confectioners' sugar, melted butter, heavy cream and almond extract in a large bowl, and mix until creamy and spreadable. Cover and set aside.
- Bake butterhorns for 12 to 15 minutes, until a light brown. Frost while still warm, and sprinkle with chopped nuts. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- Cut butter into flour in a bowl using 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add sour cream and egg yolk; mix well. Shape the dough into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
- Combine walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
- Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/8-inch thick circle on a lightly floured surface. Spread 1/4 of the walnut mixture on each circle; cut each circle into 12 wedge-shaped pieces with a pizza wheel.
- Shape each piece of dough into a crescent by rolling dough from the wide end of the wedge into the center. Transfer cookies carefully to the baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Watch cookies carefully as they bake; their bottoms tend to brown faster than their tops.

Steps:
- Crumble the compressed yeast into a small bowl, and mix in 2 teaspoons of sugar. Set aside. In a small saucepan, heat milk until a skin forms on the top. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool slightly.
- Place 1 cup of butter and remaining 1/2 cup of sugar into a large bowl. Pour the hot milk over them, and stir until butter is melted. Let the mixture cool to just above body temperature. Beat in the eggs, one at a time mixing well after each one, then stir in the yeast mixture. Add 3 cups of flour, and mix until well blended. Gradually mix in the remaining flour, mixing as well as you can. The dough will be sticky. Cover the bowl with a towel, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- After the dough has risen, punch down, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
- Divide the dough into four pieces. Use one piece at a time, leaving the rest in the refrigerator. On a lightly floured surface, roll the piece of dough out into a 12 inch circle. Spread about 2 tablespoons of butter over the surface. Cut into 8 wedges, as you would a pizza. Roll each wedge starting at the wide end, and ending at the point. Place onto a lightly greased cookie sheet, and bend the ends so that they are crescent shaped. Cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm place until doubled. This will take about 2 hours because the dough is cold.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden.

GERMAN BUTTERHORNS
This is a fabulous old recipe...the pastry has yeast in it yet requires no rising or kneading! This recipe is great for bakers who are not yet experts- These butterhorns are shaped like cresents and are beautiful anytime of the year but are extra special to serve during the holidays. I did see this recipe posted on another sight but not here on zaar. This recipe does take a bit of time but it is sooo worth it!!!! Please note that you need to refrigerate the pastry dough for at least 6hrs (I usually do mine overnight to split the work up:)-I did not include this time in the prep time. Please note that this recipe asks that you roll the dough out on a surface sprinkled with powdered sugar-not flour...please make sure you have enough before hand.

Steps:
- Sift together flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Cut in shortening until dough resembles pie dough. Add egg yolks, vanilla and sour cream. Mix with hands until dough forms a ball. Divide into 5 even balls and refrigerate for 6 hrs or overnight.
- When ready to roll out the dough make the filling by beating the egg whites until stiff. Add sugar and vanilla; beat well. Fold in walnuts.
- Sprinkle bread board with powdered sugar and roll each ball of dough into a 12 inch circle. Cut each circle into 6 pie shaped pieces. Spread with filling and roll up, starting at the wide end.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. Butter horns will be a light golden color when done.
- At this time in a small sauce pan melt the butter for the glaze, remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar and the almond extract -- add a bit more butter or sugar as needed so that you can dip the tops of the butterhorns in the glaze and place on wax paper to set up.
- Enjoy!

BUTTER HORNS
This has been a favorite yeast roll in our family. My Mom used to make these, so this brings back good memories of her. I have brought these to potlucks and usually don't take any home with me. Kids will take two or three at one time once they have tasted them. Use them as a dinner roll or ice them with a butter icing, top with crusted walnuts. Humm.....

Steps:
- I use my Bosch mixer with dough hooks to make these, but you can make them by hand as well.
- Into the mixing bowl put yeast, sugar and hot water.
- Melt margarine and crisco and add to mixing bowl.
- Add about 4 cups of flour, then the eggs and salt.
- Add the remaining flour until dough is clean from the sides of the bowl.
- This may differ and not necessarily be 9 cups, it could be less or maybe more.
- Let the mixer knead the dough a couple of minutes.
- Place dough in large greased bowl (tupperware fix-n-mix) and cover.
- Then let rise about 20-30 minutes or till lid of tupperware pops off.
- Punch down.
- Preheat oven to 400 deg F.
- Roll dough into about 9" circles, 1/3 inch thick.
- Cut each circle into 10- 12 wedge-shaped pieces.
- (Wide end should be about 2 1/2- 3 inches wide).
- Roll up each wedge, starting at wide end and rolling to the point.
- Place on greased pan and finish doing this to all the dough.
- Let rise, covered with a clean teatowel and a plastic sheet on top of the towel (like a heavy plastic bag cut open).
- The plastic keeps the rolls from drying out as they are rising.
- Bake at 400 deg F for about 8- 10 minutes or until golden in color.
