STOLLEN
German stollen is dense bread that is traditionally oblong, like a swaddled baby. In this version, from Martha's mother, the dough is braided, letting icing pool in the loaf's crevices.

Steps:
- Whisk together flour, granulated sugar, salt, mace, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Stir in milk and melted butter. Add dissolved yeast and the eggs. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth.
- Drain raisins and currants. Add raisins, currants, almonds, citron, orange peel, apricots, and lemon zest to dough, and continue kneading until incorporated, about 10 minutes. If dough is sticky, knead in more flour.
- Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, 1 to 2 hours. Punch down dough, divide into 6 even pieces, and roll each piece into a 15-inch-long log. Braid 3 logs together, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining 3 logs. Cover with plastic, and let rise until doubled in volume, about 2 hours more.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake stollen until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Beat together confectioners' sugar and milk. Drizzle stollen with icing just before serving.
GERMAN STOLLEN
Stollen (pronounced shtoh-luhn) is a traditional Christmas bread from Germany. The bread varies slightly from one area of Germany to another, so that one hears of Dresden, Bavarian, or other regional stollens. The bread is often stuffed with fruits, marzipan and sometimes nuts. The traditional shape is that of a large, folded oval that resembles a large Parker House roll. Make it a month or six weeks ahead and then freeze it. On Christmas morning, unwrap it, and reheat it in a warm (300 F) oven, and enjoy it with coffee and hot chocolate. This recipe makes two loaves and I usually give one as a gift with reheating instructions written on a Christmas card.

Steps:
- TO MAKE THE DOUGH, combine the candied fruits, raisins, currants, candied cherries, citron, and rum in a bowl, and mix to coat all the fruits with rum.

- Remove from the heat.
- Add butter and stir until the butter is melted and the mixture has cooled to very warm (130 F.).
- Add the milk mixture and eggs to the flour mixture and beat until the mixture is smooth, satiny, and has an elastic quality to it.
- Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining flour a cup at a time and mix until the dough is stiff.
- If using a mixer with a dough hook, knead the dough for 5 minutes at low speed, scraping the sides of the bowl.
- Or turn out onto a floured board and knead, adding flour as necessary to make a light and springy dough.
- Knead or mix in the fruit-rum mixture.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until doubled.
- Lightly grease a baking sheet or cover with parchment paper.
- To fill and finish the stollen, punch down the dough and divide into 2 parts.
- On a lightly oiled surface, pat each half into an oval about 12 inches long and 8 inches wide at its widest point.
- Brush each oval with 1/2 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar.
- Make a crease down the length of each oval.
- Fold each loaf in half lengthwise along the crease to enclose the sugared surface.
- Place the loaves on a baking sheet spaced well apart.
- Cover and let rise until puffy, but not doubled, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Brush each loaf with 1/2 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean and dry.
- If the stollen begins to brown excessively, cover lightly with foil to finish baking.
- While the loaves are still hot, brush each loaf with 1/2 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar.
- Drizzle each loaf with 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons brandy or rum.
- Remove from the sheet and cool on a wire rack.
- Brush with the remaining butter.
- Wrap the loaves in plastic, then in foil and store in a cool place for 2 to 3 days until ready to serve or freeze up to 3 months.
- Makes 2 loaves.
- NOTE; Citron is a semitropical citrus fruit that looks like a large, lumpy, yellow-green lemon.

- Place the raisins, candied citrus peel and almonds in a medium bowl and pour the rum over it. Stir to combine. Set aside and let the fruit mixture soak in the rum while the dough rises.
- Stir the yeast and 2 tablespoons of the sugar into the lukewarm milk and let sit in a warm place for 10-15 minutes until very frothy.
- Place the flour, remaining sugar, egg, egg yolks, butter, vanilla extract, lemon zest, salt, cardamom, mace and cinnamon in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add the yeast/milk mixture. Use a spoon to stir the mixture until it comes together. Knead the dough on the bread setting for 7-8 minutes. Remove the dough ball, lightly spray the bowl with a little oil, return the dough ball, cover loosely with plastic wrap and place it in a warm place or lightly warmed oven (just barely warm), to rise until nearly doubled in size, at least 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough and add the soaked fruit/nut mixture to the dough (it should have absorbed all the rum by now but if there is excess liquid, pour it out before adding the mixture to the dough). Using the dough hook, knead the fruit/nut mixture into the dough until combined. If the dough is too wet to handle, add a little bit of flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

- If your candied orange and lemon peels are quite big, chop them into smaller pieces with a knife.
- In a small bowl, combine raisins, candied orange peel, candied lemon peel, ground almonds, and the rum. Stir until everything is well mixed. Cover the bowl with cling film or place the mixture into a container with a lid and let it sit for one hour. You can also let it sit for longer or overnight if you want more intense flavors.
- In a small pot or microwave-safe container, heat the milk until it is lukewarm. Then add the dry yeast and one tablespoon of sugar. Whisk until the yeast and the sugar have dissolved. It's important that your milk is only warm and not hot as this might harm the yeast bacteria.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, egg, butter, sugar, lemon zest, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. Mix everything together with the spiral dough hooks of your electric mixer.
