7. Thank you for telling us about this site.

I downloaded the booklet. The coffee kringle is a great recipe, it calls for a cooked prune filling. it is a good recipe to try if you have never worked with yeast. It's my daughter's favorite. I usually double to recipe and make one kringle with the prune filling and another with pineapple or apricot preserves. I made the Danish pastries in the booklet one time. I made the recipe for yeast doughnuts too many times to count.

I have been trying out rapid-rise recipes and I am not liking them. The dough does not develop the same crumb as regular yeast dough, it's more like over-risen dough. I used the rapid rise recipes on the Fleischman website. I also used it to make pizza dough, but there is no advantage to using it as pizza dough is a one rise dough. I made dinner rolls with it 2 times, they were okay, but regular yeast dough produces a better product.
