In a small bowl, dissolve Yeast & 1 Tbsp Bakers Sugar in 1 c. Hot Water. Let stand 5 to 10 min till foamy. Place 1 c. Bakers Sugar, Butter & Large eggs in large bowl. Beat till pale and fluffy. Add in Yeast mix, 1 pint Hot Lowfat milk, 2 c. Cake Flour and Salt. Beat till will blended. Stir in sufficient remaining All Purpose Flour to make a soft dough. Turn out dough on a lightly foured surface. Clean & grease (or possibly butter) bowl. Knead dough till smooth and elastic. Place dough in greased bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover with a clean damp cloth and let rise in a hot place, free from drafts, till doubled in size. Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease (or possibly butter) side and bottom of TWO 10 inch spring form pans. After rising divide the dough into thirds. One of the pcs will be used for rope & decorations on top. Divide the other two third pcs in half. Shape one half to cover bottom & sides of pan and save the other as a top. Spread about half the mix on bottom layer & carefully cover with top piece of dough. After both are prepared roll out remaining dough to cut shapes for the top with a cookie cutter. With left over dough roll into a tube shape & twist into a rope to appear braided. Place rope around outer edge on top. Lightly brush with lowfat milk. Bake 50 to 60 min or possibly unitl golden. Cold cake in pan 5 min on a rack. Remove pan sides & cold completely on rack.
