Instructions for Sour Cream Sweet Dough Coffee Cake

This makes enough dough for 6 coffee cakes. Place yeast in a small bowl; add 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Add warm water and stir until yeast and sugar are dissolved. Let stand 10 minutes. Combine melted butter, sour cream, eggs, salt, nutmeg, orange rind and remaining sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until well blended. Add 2 cups of flour; beat until well mixed. Add yeast mixture and 2 more cups of flour; beat 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Gradually stir in the remaining 2 cups of flour to make a medium soft dough. (Dough will be softer than bread dough.) Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 5minutes until smooth. Shape dough into a ball. Place in a lightly oiled large bowl; turn to grease. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate atleast 4 hours, overnight or up to 2 days! Punch down risen dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead briefly. Divide into 6 equal parts. Shape portions into 4" squares. Cover; let rest for up to 20 minutes. Roll out one portion at a time on a lightly floured surface into a 10" square. Keep remaining portions covered and in a cool place. Spread filling of your choice evenly over dough to 1/2" of edges. Roll up tightly like a jelly roll. Pinch long seam and ends to seal. Shape into one of 13 variations, hold for later baking (place on a lightly dusted cookie sheet; cover loosely with plastic wrap, refrigerate) or freeze (wrapped airtight and sealed) for up to 2 weeks.
