Time 1h

Yield 2 rings (10 slices each).

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
2/3 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 teaspoon salt
3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
FILLING:
1-1/2 cups finely chopped almonds
1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, softened
ICING:
2-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons 2% milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add the eggs, sugar, butter, salt and 1 cup flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky)., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Combine the almonds, brown sugar and cinnamon; set aside., Punch dough down; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half. Roll each half into a 12-in. x 9-in. rectangle. Spread butter over rectangles to within 1 in. of edges; sprinkle with almond mixture. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal., Place each portion seam side down on a greased baking sheet; pinch ends together to form a ring. With scissors, cut from outside edge to two-thirds of the way toward center of ring at 1-1/2-in. intervals. Separate strips slightly; twist to allow filling to show. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour., Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla; drizzle over rings.

I'm not a big fan of coffee. Would these rings still be good if I omitted the coffee?

I'm allergic to almonds. Is there a substitute filling I could use?

These coffee rings are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. The almond filling is not too overpowering, and the streusel topping adds a nice crunch.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my coffee rings didn't turn out right. The dough was too dry and the almond filling was too runny. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of almond filling, but these coffee rings were still really good. The dough is so soft and fluffy, and the streusel topping adds a nice crunch. I'd definitely make these again, but maybe with a different filling.
