2 c. sugar
2 sticks butter
4 egg yolks
2 c. buttermilk
2 t. soda
2 t. baking powder
1 t. salt
6 c. flour
1 t. vanilla
Mix butter, egg yolks, salt, sugar and 1/2 c. buttermilk. Mix until fluffy. Add soda to remaining buttermilk and add to above mixture and mix slightly. Add baking powder to 2 c. flour. Add to above mixture and beat until well blended. Add vanilla. Stir in remaining 4 c. flour. Chill dough overnight. Take about a walnut size piece of dough, roll out in a rope on a lightly floured cloth and shape into a wreath or the traditional Kringla shape. Bake at 475 degrees for 6-7 minutes. Enjoy! Pop in the microwave or toaster oven briefly for a warm, just baked treat.
