Place on greased cookie sheet. Bring ends of roll rogether to form
ring; pinch ends together to seal, using water if necessary. With
scissors or sharp knife, make diagonal cuts, about 1" apart, into top
of ring. Let rise in warm place 30 minutes. (Dough will not double
in volume.)

Preheat oven to 375. Beat together egg and cold water; brush over
ring. Bake 25-30 minutes, until golden brown. Immediately remove
from pan. Cool on wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
