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.

POVITICA
This bread is labor intensive, but SO worth the effort. This recipe has been passed down for generations in my family. It is a little different from the others I've seen on the internet. It is so good and a Christmas Morning tradition. I'm glad to say my father taught me and I am teaching my daughter.

Steps:
- 1. TO MAKE THE FILLING: HEAT BUTTER TILL GOLDEN BROWN. WATCH CAREFULLY AS IT WILL BURN QUICKLY AS IT STARTS TO TURN. ADD WALNUTS STIRRING CONSTANTLY. WHEN THOUROUGHLY WARMED ADD CANNED MILK STIRRING TILL COMES TO A BOIL ON LOW HEAT.
- 2. ADD 2 1/2 CUPS SUGAR, 2 TEASPOONS CINNAMON, CONTINUALLY STIRRING AND BOIL FOR 20 MINUTES. BEAT 4 EGGS AND POUR SLOWLY INTO MIXTURE. STIR CONSTANTLY AND BOIL 10 MINUTES MORE. THIS SCORCHES EASILY, SO HEAT MAY NOT BE HIGH. COOL TO ROOM TEMP BEFORE SPREADING ON BREAD.
- 3. BREAD DOUGH: COMBINE 7 cups FLOUR,SUGAR AND SALT .ADD TO MILK HEATED LUKEWARM. PUT YEAST IN ½ CUP WARM WATER AND LET STAND TIL FOAM BEGINS TO FORM. POUR INTO MIXTURE AND MIX WELL. BEAT TO COMBINE WITH DOUGH. ADD BEATEN EGGS, MELT BUTTER BUT DON'T OVERHEAT: ADD TO DOUGH AND KNEAD WELL. ADD THE REST OF THE FLOUR, DOUGH WILL BE SOMEWHAT SOFTER THAN BREAD DOUGH. LET IT RISE UNTIL DOUBLED.
- 4. ROLL OUT SECTIONS OF DOUGH VERY THIN (KEEP BREAD OUT OF DRAFTS AND WARM WHILE STRETCHING IT) IT HELPS TO ROLL OUT ON PATTERNED TABLECLOTH, WHEN YOU CAN SEE THE PATTERN IT IS THIN ENOUGH. SPREAD FILLING ON DOUGH NOT TOO THICK. ROLL ON LONG EDGE AND COIL INTO GREASED PAN.
- 5. BAKE 9 INCH SQUARE LOAVES 40 MINUTES AT 350 DEGREES. BEAT 1 EGG WITH 1 TBLS WATER AND BRUSH ON BEFORE BAKING FOR NICE GOLDEN COLOR.
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.
