Prepare the Danish
Dissolve yeast in warm water in the bowl of a mixer. Let sit for five minutes.
Meanwhile, add the lemon juice to the warm milk. Add it to the yeast mixture, along with 1/4 cup butter, sugar, eggs, salt, vanilla, two cups flour, and dough enhancer, if using. Beat until smooth.
Stir in the remaining flour to form a soft dough. (Depending on the weather, you might need more or less flour.) Continue kneading for six to eight minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic. Leave it in the mixing bowl (no need to dirty
another one!), cover, and let rise for about one hour.Punch down the dough. On a lightly floured surface, roll the
dough into a very large rectangle. Dot half the surface with 1/4 cup butter, cut into small pieces; fold dough in half lengthwise. (Every time you dot the dough with butter, smooth it out very gently with a knife in that spot.)Dot with more pieces of butter and fold lengthwise into thirds.
Dot with remaining butter and fold widthwise into thirds. You
should have a high, thick piece of layered dough. Roll dough into a large rectangle (if you’d like smaller pastries, cut the dough in half before rolling).Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and sugar. Roll it up, jelly roll
style, until you have a long log. Slice into buns and place on a
Gefen Parchment Paper-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise
for 40 minutes, or until doubled.Halfway through, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
