INGREDIENTS

1 Active dry yeast
1/4 c Warm water, 105-115 degrees
1/2 c Warm milk, 105-115 degrees
1/2 c Fresh orange juice
1/2 c Granulated sugar
1/2 c Ricotta cheese
1 T Grated orange zest
1/2 t Salt
1 Egg, lightly beaten
3 1/2 up to
4 c All-purpose flour
1 c Confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 up to
2 T Fresh orange juice

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until foamy,
5 to 10    minutes. Stir the warm milk, orange juice, sugar, ricotta
cheese, orange zest, salt, and egg into the yeast mixture. Using
heavy-duty electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and set  on
low speed, beat 2 cups flour into the yeast mixture until a wet  dough
forms. Beat in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a  stiff
dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and  knead
until smooth and elastic, 5 to 10 minutes, adding more flour as  needed
to prevent sticking. Place the dough in a large greased bowl,  turning
to coat.  Cover loosely with a damp cloth and let rise in a  warm place
until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours. Grease a 10-inch  springform pan.
Punch down the dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured  surface and
knead for 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 3 equal  pieces. Roll
each piece into a 20-inch-long rope. Braid the ropes  together. Coil
braided dough in prepared pan; tuck ends under. Cover  loosely with a
damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until almost  doubled, 30
minutes. Preheat oven to 425 deg F. Brush the dough with  glaze. Bake
until the top of the cake is golden brown, 25 to 30  minutes. Turn the
cake out onto a wire rack to cool slightly. To  prepare icing, in a
small bowl, stir together confectioners' sugar  and orange juice until
smooth. Spread icing over warm cake. Serve  warm.  FROM "GREAT AMERICAN
