Chile Bread

1 package dry yeast 
1/4 cup warm water 
4 1/2 cups flour 
1/2 cup melted butter 
1 cup warm milk 
1/4 cup sugar 
1 teaspoon salt 
1 egg 
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion 
1/2 cup melted butter 
3 tablespoons red chili powder or 1 cup frozen green chile, thawed

Dissolve yeast in water. Mix in 2 cups of flour, butter, milk, sugar, salt, and egg. Beat for 2 minutes. Add enough flour to make a stiff dough. Turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth. Put in a greased bowl, turn over, and cover with a clean cloth. Put bowl in a warm place with no drafts and let the dough rise until doubled (about 1 hour).

Combine remaining ingredients for filling. Punch dough down and roll into an 8 x 20 inch rectangle. Cut into four 2 x 20 strips. Spread filling on each strip and fold over length wise. Twist 2 strips together and form in a circle on greased cookie sheet. Cover with clean cloth and let rise until doubled. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with chili powder.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes
