The night before baking, make the dough. Place the dough ingredients, except the
butter, in the pan according to the order in the manufacturer’s instructions. Pro-
gram for the Dough cycle; press Start. Set a kitchen timer for 10 minutes. The
dough will be firm, but springy.
When the timer rings, open the lid. While the machine is running, add a piece or two
of the butter at a time, allowing the butter to be incorporated before adding more
pieces. It will take a minute or two to add all the pieces. Close the lid.
When the Knead 2 phase ends, set a timer for 30 minutes and let the dough rise in the
machine. Then press Stop and unplug the machine. Remove the dough to a
greased 4-quart plastic bucket (I spray it with butter-flavored cooking spray),
cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight.
To make the topping, in the workbowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar,
and cinnamon. With the motor running, dribble in the vanilla, then stop and add
the butter pieces. Pulse to make a crumbly mass that forms large clumps. Do not
overmix. Place in a covered plastic container. Refrigerate over night, if making
the day before, or make it in the morning.
In the morning, line an 18-by-12-by-1-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
Spray the sides and bottom with butter-flavored cooking spray. Turn the dough
out onto a lightly floured work surface; it will be cold and stiff. With a rolling pin,
roll out into a rectangle that will fit the pan. Transfer to the pan, pressing to fit the
bottom. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise at room temperature until
doubled in bulk, about 3 hours.
