1 cup water, warm

Dissolve the yeast cake and add one Tbsp of the sugar and the salt and
enough flour to stiffen to a sponge. Let rise for one hour, then add
the rest of the ingredients, using enough sifted flour to make a soft
sponge. Let rise again, then roll out dough on a floured board and
cover with a mixture of 4 Tbsp sugar, 4 Tbsp butter and 1 1/2 tsp
cinnamon. Roll like a jelly roll and cut in 2 inch pieces. Place on
well-greased pans and let rise for a third time, then bake at 400-F
for 20 minutes. Source: Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book - Fine Old
