Ma's Masa (Bread Machine Version)
1/3 cup warm milk (plus 2-3 Tbs)
4 1/2 Tbs water
3 eggs
2 Tbs butter
3 Tbs Crisco (melted, not hot)
3/4 cup sugar
3 1/3 cup bread flour
2 tsp yeast
pinch of salt
Put ingredients in bread machine in order given. Use Dough setting. While dough is kneading, add 2-3 Tbs milk if necessary. Dough should be a little harder than a cake batter.
When cycle is finished, remove from machine and put round pan which has been greased and floured (like a 2 qt round casserole dish). Let rise 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
Bake at 300 degrees 40-50 minutes. Glaze with sugar/water mixture.
