2 quarts walnuts
18 ounces evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 boxes hot roll mix
Butter
Grind walnujts to a fine paste. In a sauce pan add nuts, milk, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cook about 20 minutes stirring constantly. Mix dough per instructions on box. Roll dough very thin, to about 42 inch diameter. It’s best to use a sheet on the dining room table (I have even used the floor when I was in college). Brush dough with melted butter. Spread nut mix over dough evenly. Shake sugar and cinnamon evenly over nuts. Grate an apple ovefr nuts. Roll jelly roll style. Dad used a roasting pan and coiled it. I use about 6 bread loaf pans and cut rolls to fit. Let rise to double in size. Bake at 350 degrees fopr 30-45 minutes or until tops are golden brown. For roasting pan bake about 1 hour.
Note: This recipe is still in the works. This has become my family tradition at Christmas time. I wanted to keep this tradition alive for my Dad, becuase I kn ow everyone looked forward to him making it. Ethan, Noah and I make this the week before Christmas and give some of it away. (It’s hard to give away because we LOVE it, and it’s so much work.)
