1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 packages yeast
1/4 cup water ,warm
1 egg
4 cups flour
1 12-oz can almond pastry filling

Scald milk and add butter, salt and sugar. Stir until butter is melted. Dissolve yeast in warm water. When milk mixture is cooled to lukewarm, add yeast , then egg. Gradually add flour and beat until dough is formed. Cover and let rise in warm place until double in bulk, about 1 hour. Prepare bread board or tables for rolling out dough by first dampening then placing a piece of wax paper over board. Place half of instant drink mix powder on waxed paper. Roll out half the dough, kneading in the chocolate powder. Roll out to an 8 x 10-inch piece. Spread half with the pastry filling. Roll up like a jelly roll. Place in a well-greased loaf pan, 5 x 9-inches. Repeat with other half of dough. Cover and laet stand 30 minutes. Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove to cooling rack. When cool, glaze.
