stir in 1 cupful of flour and let the mixture rise. when the sponge is
light, add the beaten egg, the fat and the brown sugar creamed, and the
remaining flour. knead until the dough is smooth and allow it to rise
until it is double in bulk. then roll the dough until it is 1/2 inch
thick, place it in a shallow pan, and let it rise until it is light.
brush the top with 1 tablespoonful of melted butter and sprinkle it with
3 teaspoonfuls of cinnamon and 3 tablespoonfuls of sugar. bake 10 to 15
