    Title: Vasilopita (St. Basil Bread)
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 10 Servings

    6 Env dry yeast
    2 c Scalded milk
    2 c Sugar
    1 lb Butter softened
    1 tb Salt
    12 lg Eggs; room temp, beaten
    5 lb Flour

    Dissolve yeast in scalded milk and let it cool until you
    can put your finger in it and count to 10.

    Add 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup flour and allow it to
    rise and froth.

    Whip butter until creamy and add eggs, when mixed add
    yeast mixture.

    Start adding the flour to make the dough come together,
    remove from mixer and add flour as needed to be able to
    knead.

    Knead for 10 minutes or until dough is elastic.

    Let rise until it doubles in size, punch the dough and
    reshape it and let rise again.

    Bake at 350°F/175°C for 30 minutes - If you made small
    loaves, or 1 hour and 15 minutes for a large loaf.

    TIP: cover with foil if you think it is getting to brown
    before the cooking time is complete, it will need to stay
    in the oven to get done

    Serves 8 - 12
