This Mallorca here is just the same as making regular bread dough, but this one requires no kneading. That is right, no kneading.

Ingredients

• 2 and 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
• 1/2 cup warm water 105-115 F
• 3/4 cup warm milk
• 1/2 cup melted butter plus 4 tbsp for brushing on the bread
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 3 egg yolks from large eggs
• 3 and1/2 - 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• powdered sugar for dusting the bread

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water. Let this mixture stand for about 5 minutes, or until it is foamy. Add the milk, 1/2 cup melted butter, sugar, salt, egg yolks and vanilla extract. Stir well with a wooden spoon until incorporated.
2. Add the flour gradually while stirring, adding only enough just until the dough turns into a shaggy mass. Stir the dough with a wooden spoon until it gathers in the center of the bowl. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise for 1 and 1/2 hours.
3. Deflate the dough. On a floured board, roll it to an 18x14 inch rectangle. Brush melted butter all over the dough. Cut the long side of the dough into 8 or 9 one-inch strips using a pizza cutter or a knife.
4. Roll the strips into coils or spirals.  Arrange them on a baking pan that is lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
5. Preheat oven to  350 F and bake the mallorca for 12-18 minutes or until lightly golden. Sprinkle icing sugar on top.
