Grease a 10-inch pie plate or round cake pan.

With the palms of your hands, roll the Basic Sweet Dough into a long narrow roll about 1 inch in diameter. Coil the roll into the prepared pan, starting at the outside edge and twisting the roll as you go. Leave a little space between each coil. Cover and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in volume, about 35 minutes.

Heat the oven to 350F. Melt the butter in a small pan. Remove from the heat, stir in the flour and then the remaining ingredients. Spoon the mixture over the risen dough.

Bake for 20 to 30 minutes until done. Place the pan on a rack to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve from the pan.

Makes one large twist.
