Meanwhile, combine milk, vanilla, butter, egg, 1/3 cup sugar, salt and nutmeg.
Stir in the yeast mixture.
Add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.
After three cups have been added, knead in the remaining flour, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time.
Knead until smooth, about 10 minutes.
Place dough in an oiled bowl, turning to coat.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
Punch down dough and roll to a 1/2-inch thickness.
Cut the dough into 2-inch diamond shapes.
Place on ungreased baking sheets.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
