Italian Holiday Bread breads, cheese 2 tablespoon yeast 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup warm water (100-115 f.) 1/2 cup butter, melted 5 eggs, 2 whole+3 yolks 1 teaspoon salt 4 cup all-purpose flour ----GLAZING MIXTURE---- 1 egg yolk 2 teaspoon flour 2 teaspoon sugar 2 teaspoon water Dissolve yeast and 1/2 cup brown sugar in the water and allow to proof. Stir in the melted butter, 2 whole eggs plus 3 egg yolks, salt, and blend well. Add the flour, 1 cup at a time, beating in well. Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead in additional flour until you have a soft velvety dough with no trace of stickiness. About 5 minutes of kneading should be enough. Divide the dough into equal portions. Flatten and shape into round loaves. Place on a greased baking sheet and cover with a tent of aluminum foil and let rise in a warm, draft-- Free spot until doubled in bulk (about 1-2 hours). Mix up the glazing mixture and brush over the tops of the two loaves. You can add a few decorative slashes with a sharp knife and sprinkle with a little brown sugar if desired. Bake at 325 F. for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when rapped on top and sides with your knuckles. Cool on rack before slicing.
