Recipe for bread machines with 1 or 1 1/2 lb loaf capacity:

Add milk, water, egg, butter, salt, bread flour, sugar and yeast into bread machine in the order suggested by manufacturer. Process in dough/manual cycle. Remove dough to floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle. Roll to 15 x 8-inch rectangle. Combine cream cheese, cranberries and remaining sugar; spread over dough to within 1/2-inch of edges. Beginning at long end, roll up tightly as for jelly roll. Pinch seam to seal. Form into ring; pinch ends together. Place ring, seam side down, on greased baking sheet. Cut slits, starting from outer edge, 3/4 through dough at 1-inch intervals. Turn each section on its side to show filling. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 30 to 45 minutes. Bake at 375~ for 25 to 30 minutes, covering with foil after 15 minutes. Remove from sheet; cool on wire rack. Frost with Icing.

VANILLA ICING: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
