Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the activated yeast mixture, melted butter, and beaten eggs. Mix until a dough begins to form.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Filling Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 8

    Roll Out Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangular shape about 1/4 inch thick.

  3. 9

    Add Filling

    Spread the ricotta filling evenly over the rolled dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  4. 10

    Roll and Cut

    Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other to form a log. Slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces and place them on a greased baking sheet.

  5. 11

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Topping Preparation

  1. 12

    Prepare Topping

    In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  2. 13

    Drizzle Over Baked Goods

    Once the Polish Change is out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the topping over each piece.
