Spread poppy seed filling on rolled dough and roll like as for jelly roll. Place in greased long narrow loaf pans. Let rise for ½ hour.

Bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes.

~-POPPY SEED FILLING:-- Boil Filling Ingredients for 10 minutes or until thick enough to spread. Cool and spread on thin rolled dough.
