Maple Sweet Rolls

I got this recipe many years ago from my good friend, Ruth Musick.

1 cup scalded milk
1/2 stick butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup sugar
scant tsp. of salt
1 egg, beaten
2 pkgs. dry yeast dissolved in 1/4 cup of warm water
3-3 1/2 cups flour

Filling:
1 stick butter or margarine
2/3 cup white sugar
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 tsp. maple flavoring
2 tsp. cinnamon

Scald milk. Then add butter, sugar and salt. Let stand til cool. Add eggs, yeast , and flour. Knead; let rise once. After risen- divide dough in 3 portions. Work one portion of dough out on buttered pizza pan,(like pizza crust. Pan needs to be about 1 inch deep.)Spread 1/2 of filling mixture on top. Pat out 2nd portion on top. Add remaining filling mixture. Put last layer on top. Put small glass in middle of dough. Cut in wedges, starting at glass and cutting to edge of crust. Cut about 16 wedges. Twist each wedge 4-5 twists. Bake immediately in 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.
Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. maple flavoring
2 Tbsp. butter
Enough milk to make creamy.
