Working from right to left, add another piece with folded edge on right side, overlapping three-fourths of the previous piece. Repeat. , Form a second rectangular loaf from the reserved folded circles. Brush with butter; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. , Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.
