I got this recipe from my aunt. I don't know where she got it, but it is a keeper. I make it for church breakfast potlucks and there is never any left to bring home. I also made it for my neighbor and her family one year for Christmas morning. They loved it so much it's a tradition now. A little time consuming, but makes a pretty coffee cake.

How To Make maple-nut coffee twist
-
1In large bowl dissolve yeast from hot roll mix in warm water. Stir in egg, sugar and maple flavoring. Add hot roll flour mixture; blend well Place in greased bowl. Cover, let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, 30 to 45 minutes.
-
2Combine all Filling ingredients except margarine.
-
3Grease 12 inch pizza pan.
-
4Divide dough equally into three balls. On lightly floured surface, roll out one ball of dough to 12-inch circle. Fit into bottom of greased pizza pan. Brush dough with 2 tablespoons melted margarine and sprinkle with about 1/3 cup filling. Continue in same manner forming 2 more layers and ending with filling.
-
5Use a glass to mark a 2-inch circle in center of dough (do not cut through dough). Cut from outside edge just to circle forming 16 pie shaped wedges. Twist each wedge 5 times. Let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, 30 to 45 minutes
-
6Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake 17 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
-
7In small bowl, combine glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over warm coffee cake.
-
8NOTE: I was in a rush one time and didn't want to take the time to roll out three layers and do the twisting. I rolled the dough into a rectangle/oblong shape, brushed with the butter and put all the filling mix on top of that. I rolled it up lengthwise (like a jelly roll) and cut them like cinnamon rolls and baked them in a 9 x 13 inch pan. They turned out just fine. While the above directions makes a pretty cake, I and my neighbor liked them better made this way. They seemed to be moister.
