DEWEY'S MORAVIAN SUGAR CAKE

Steps:

• Step 1. Prepare mashed potatoes. Peel one medium potato, boil until soft. Drain and mash. (Set to the side.for use in the dough).
• Step 2. Prepare the dough. Combine the egg, shortening, salt, milk, potatoes, and sugar in the bowl of a mixer, and mix with the paddle (or whisk attachment if using hand mixer). Mix for about 4 minutes to blend all ingredients. If you are using a standing mixer that has a dough hook attachment, change over to the dough hook and add the bread our and then the cake our. If you do not have a dough hook, just continue with your hand mixer. Mix the yeast with the water and add to the bowl with the other ingredients, and mix until combined.
• At this point, if you are using a dough hook continue mixing on medium speed for about 7 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic. If you do not have a dough hook, then turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for about 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
• Step 3. Cover and let rise about 1 -1/2 hours until dough has doubled in size.
• Step 4. Grease with shortening a 12 x 18 or 1/2 sheet cake pan with 2-inch sides. Punch dough down and roll out to approximately 12 x 18 rectangle shape on a at surface. Poke holes in the dough with either a docker or a fork, and then t the dough into the bottom of a pan. Fit dough tightly to the sides of the pan, but do not push the dough up the sides of the pan.
• Step 5. Let the dough rest while you combine the butter, sugar and cinnamon in a pan on stove top. Bring it to a boil. Remove from heat. Poke small indentations with your fingers into the dough, making sure not to poke holes all the way through to the pan. Pour the warm butter sugar mixture over the top, spreading gently with a small spatula to ensure an even distribution. Let the dough rise again until doubled in height (approx 30-40 minutes).
• Step 6. Bake in preheated 365 degree oven for 15-17 minutes. Sugar Cake should be lightly browned on the bottom. Note: Check after approx 10 minutes to make sure there is not a air bubble in the dough. If there is a bubble, simply burst the bubble and continue baking Cut into squares and serve warm.
• Total time is approximately 4 hours to produce.

DEWEY'S QUICK DOUGH RECIPE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a food processor with the motor off, combine 3/4 cup of flour, yeast and sugar. Turn on the motor and add 3/4 cup of hot water. Blend ingredients, then turn it off again. Add the oil and salt and turn the machine on again. Add the remaining flour, while the machine is running, until a ball forms. You may not have to add all of the flour. Check for desired consistency of the dough. You do not want it too sticky. If it is too dry, add more hot water, 1 teaspoon at a time. If it is too wet add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time. When you have the right consistency continue to process for 15 seconds. You can use the dough right away, but for a softer crust the following step is recommended. Remove the dough from the food processor and place in a lightly oiled bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes. It should double in bulk. Knock it down and let it rise again, an additional 30 minutes. Now it is ready to use. Start with dough in a disk shape. Flour dough and work suface. Shape the dough with your fingers a rim around the outer edge of the crust. Then use the edges of your hands cupped in a circle to continue stretching and making the pizza crust larger, being careful not to flatten the edge or lip of the crust. Once it is is about 8 inches in diameter, take the dough and "slap" it back and forth between both of your hands, turning slighly each "slap" until it is the desired size. You can also toss it in the air, but this takes lots of practice and expertise! (And also lots of fun!) Load pizza crust with toppings of your choice and slide it onto a preheated baking stone in your oven at 425-450 degrees. Check the pizza every 2 minutes and spin if necessary. If the bottom is getting too brown and the top is not yet cooked, slide a pizza screen between the stone and the pizza to prevent further browning. Cooking times may vary, but will take approximately 10 minutes.
