Personal Notes:
Although these doughnuts have never been served at Polish dinner, Mom always made us doughnuts with biscuit dough. It was always a favorite of all of us. This is the Romanian recipe.

Use this basic dough to create a jelly roll.
When doubled in bulk, divide in 2 and roll out not more than 1/2 in thick. Fill with nut/raisin filling or spread with apricot jam. Roll up and place in a loaf pan greased well. Brush with melted butter or beaten egg white. Cover, place in a warm place to rise again. When doubled in bulk, brush again and bake about 45 mins at 350 degrees.
