Portuguese Sweet Bread

We discovered this masa recipe when we went too long between visits to Massachusetts to replenish our supplies. When done right, it tastes just like the real thing. --Mark

Ingredients:

2/3 cup milk
1 1/3 eggs
1 1/8 T butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups bread flour
1 1/2 tsp yeast

Instructions:

Add all ingredients to your bread machine according to the directions. Bake on sweet bread setting if available.

Notes:

This makes a 1 1/2 lb loaf. We use a large farm-fresh egg instead of trying to measure out 1/3 of an egg, although we've done it that way, too.
