Preparation

Step 1

•In a large bowl, combine the contents of the roll mix and yeast packets with the sugar. Stir in water, egg, maple flavoring and 6 tablespoons butter; mix well.
•Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 2-3 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, 45-60 minutes.
•Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into thirds. Roll one portion into a 12-in. circle; transfer to a greased 12-in. pizza pan. Brush with some of the remaining butter. Combine sugar, cinnamon and maple flavoring. Add nuts; set aside. Divide dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion to a 12-in. circle; place on a greased 12-in. pizza pan. Brush with some of the remaining butter. Sprinkle with a third of the filling. Repeat with remaining dough, butter and filling.
•Pinch dough around outer edge to seal. Place a small glass in center. Cut from outside edge just to the 2-in. circle, forming 16 wedges. Twist each wedge five to six times. Cover and let rise until doubled, 30-45 minutes.
•Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack to cool. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm coffee cake. Yield: 16 servings.
