I won best of show at the county fair with this favorite yeast bread. I like to shape the dough into an attractive braid. It smells wonderful coming out of the oven, and everyone likes the texture and flavor. -Marie Hattrup Sparks, Nevada

[email protected]Not worth the effort. The instructions were unclear and the braid didn't turn out as pictured.
Lisa Rochelle
[email protected]Disappointed. The dough was difficult to work with and the braid didn't rise properly. The filling was also bland and lacked flavor.

[email protected]This braid was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still pretty good. The dough was easy to work with and the filling was creamy and tangy. Next time I'll try using less sugar in the filling.
