Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Dough
2 3/4 to 3 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 package Fleischmann's RapidRise yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground mace or nutmeg -- optional
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons margarine or butter -- cut up
1 egg

Filling
1/2 cup apricot jam or preserves
3/4 cup chopped dried apricots or golden raisins
1/3 cup slivered almonds -- toasted

Icing
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 to 2 Tbsp. milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

In large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, salt, and
mace. Heat 1/2 cup milk, water, and butter until very warm (120-130?);
stir into dry ingredients. Stir in egg and enough remaining flour to
make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth, about 7
minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.

Roll dough to 20x9" rectangle; spread evenly with jam. Sprinkle
apricots and almonds over jam; roll up tightly from long side, pinching
seam to seal. Form into ring; pinch together ends. Place, seam side
down, on greased large baking sheet. With sharp knife, make cuts along
outer edge of ring at 1-inch intervals, cutting 3/4 of the way through
dough. Turn each section on its side to show filling. Cover; let rise
in warm place 30 to 60 minutes or until doubled.

Bake at 350? for 30-35 minutes or until done; cover with foil after 20
minutes to prevent excess browning. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack.
In small bowl, combine icing ingredients; stir until smooth. Drizzle
over coffee cake.
