YUGOSLAVIAN POTICA BREAD
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: This recipe uses 1/2 a recipe of Recipe #307801, which is what I am unable to list in the ingredient list. I hope this is not too confusing, but it was the only way Zaar would let me do it. From "Festive Breads from your Food Processor", Good Food Magazine, December 1986.
