1/2 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
2 (1/4-ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 cup sour cream, heated in microwave for 30 seconds
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs

1 cup confectioners sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Preheat oven to 375. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.

In a small bowl, combine confectioners sugar and milk. Brush over hot pastries. Drizzle with melted chocolate. Yield: 4 loaves
