Number Of Ingredients 14

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
2 cups all-purpose flour
4-1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening

Stir in the yeast mixture, milk and egg yolk; beat until smooth (dough will be very soft). Do not knead. Cover and refrigerate overnight., Punch dough down. Turn onto a well-floured surface; divide in half. Return one portion to the refrigerator. Roll remaining portion into an 18x6-in. rectangle. Beat egg white until stiff peaks form; brush half down the center of rectangle. Combine pecans and brown sugar; sprinkle half over dough. , Fold sides of dough over filling, overlapping by 1-1/2 in.; pinch seam to seal. Carefully place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Shape into a U-shape; pinch ends to seal. Repeat with remaining dough, egg white and filling. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. , Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Combine confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve desired consistency; drizzle over kringles.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my kringles came out flat. They still tasted good, though.

I'm not a huge fan of pecans, but I really enjoyed these kringles. The filling was sweet and gooey, and the pastry was flaky and buttery.
