Instructions
Make the dough:

- Using a pastry cutter, 2 forks, or your hands, blend together until the mixture is crumbly.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the yeast, beaten egg, and milk.
- Add the milk mixture to flour mixture.
- Mix until blended. (Dough may seem sticky. Do not worry.)
- Place the dough on a large piece of plastic wrap (at least 11×17 inches).
- Flatten the dough into a disk and wrap it in the plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- When the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Make the filling:
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Melt the butter and set it aside.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and open the plastic wrap.
- Leaving the dough in the center of the wrap, take a second similar sized piece of plastic wrap and lay it on top of the dough.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out into a rectangle that is 11×17 inches in size and 1/8-inch thick.
- Brush the dough with 3 tablespoons of the melted butter and then cover evenly with the cinnamon sugar mixture, reserving a couple teaspoons.
- Rolling from the long ends of each side, roll each side towards the center until both sides meet.
- Roll the assembled kringle off of the plastic wrap onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
- It really does not matter if you place it face up or face down. B
- rush the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and sprinkle with the remaining sugar mixture.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until slightly firm to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes while making the glaze.
- To make the glaze, simply whisk together the powdered sugar, butter, milk, water, and vanilla until smooth.
- Top the kringle with the glaze and serve.
