CHRISTMAS STOLLEN WITH ICING
Steps:
- Sponge
- Stir 1 1/2 teaspoons lukewarm milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons lukewarm water and 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar in large bowl. Add yeast and stir until smooth. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add 2 2/3 cups flour and remaining lukewarm milk and mix well. Cover and let sponge rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
- Dough
- Mix 3 tablespoons flour with raisins, slivered almonds and candied fruit in medium bowl. Using a stand mixer with the mixing paddle, beat 1 cup unsalted butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, 1 teaspoon vanilla and salt. Beat in sponge. Stir in fruit and nuts. Stir in remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time. The dough should be slightly sticky. Replace the mixer paddle with the dough hook. Knead the dough for 3-5 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. Lightly oil a large bowl. Add dough, turning to coat entire surface. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 2 1/2 hours. Place a Silpat mat or parchment paper on a large baking sheet. Punch dough down. Divide dough in half. Pat each half into 10" x 16" oval. Fold in half lengthwise to form a 5" x 16" loaf. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and let rise in warm draft-free area until almost double in volume, about 2 hours. Position racks in lower and upper thirds of oven and preheat to 325°F. Switch the positions of the loaves after 30 minutes. Bake for 1 hour, until loaves are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on bottom. Transfer to a baking rack and cool slightly.
- Icing
- In a small saucepan over low heat, warm 1/4 cup unsalted butter and 4 tablespoons water, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the liquid is gently simmering. Remove the pan from the heat. Sift the confectioners' sugar into the pan and mix with a rubber spatula until the icing is thick and creamy. Mix in the remaining teaspoon vanilla. Drizzle the icing over each stollen and spread to cover each loaf. Let the icing set for about 10 minutes.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
ST. LOUIS CHRISTMAS STOLLEN
Family favorite. My rendition of the Christmas stollen that you find at the local bakeries, especially on "The Hill" in St. Louis. This recipe makes 3 large stollen (about 48 servings). Can cut as you want and even make smaller stollen.

Steps:
- Begin filling: Combine citron, currants, and orange juice in a lidded jar. Add enough water to cover fruit. Seal and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
- Prepare dough: Combine milk, sugar, and cubed butter in a small pot over medium-low heat. Heat until butter melts and mixture is warmed to 110 degrees F (43 degrees C). Pour into the bowl of a stand mixer and add yeast; let proof for 13 minutes.
- Stir eggs into the milk-yeast mixture. Gradually add flour and salt and knead with the dough hook until well combined. Transfer dough to a floured work surface and knead by hand for 5 minutes.
- Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and flip to coat all sides. Cover lightly and allow to rise at room temperature until 1 1/2 times its size, about 3 1/2 hours.
- Punch down dough. Place on a floured work surface and divide into 3 equal portions. Shape into balls and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, finish filling: Remove citron-currant mixture from the refrigerator. Drain liquid. Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.
- Roll marzipan on a floured silicone pad into three 9x11-inch sheets, using a floured plastic fondant roller.
- Roll one portion of dough on a floured surface into a 10x12-inch rectangle. Cover the whole surface with 1/3 of the melted butter. Turn dough so the long end is facing you. Layer with 1/3 of the cinnamon-sugar mixture, leaving 1/2 inch at the sides and 1 inch at the top uncovered. Sprinkle 1/3 of the citron-currant mixture over the cinnamon-sugar, then 1/3 of the finely chopped pecans. Top with a sheet of marzipan.
- Start at the bottom edge and roll the dough carefully away from you and around the filling; be sure to keep the edges clean. When you reach the last 1 1/2 inches, fold the top down and pinch to seal the roll. Fold in the sides and pinch to seal.
- Flip the roll so the seam is facing down. Use a rolling pin to roll out a 6 1/2x14-inch rectangle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rest for 40 minutes.
- Repeat Steps 8 to 10 with remaining dough, filling ingredients, and marzipan.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- Make icing: combine water, meringue powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix on high speed until meringue becomes sloppy and bubbly. Add 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar and mix until smooth and well combined. Mix in remaining sugar gradually until consistency is like thick honey.
- Spread just enough icing on each cooled loaf to act as a glue. Top with pecans and then candied fruit.

WHOLE WHEAT CHRISTMAS STOLLEN
A few years ago I was working for a Dutch Bakery here in Michigan. When it was Christmas time, my primary my job was to make and decorate cookies. But I would snack on Stollen all day long. I had never had it before and I loved it. I made this recipe with half whole wheat to add some more fiber and substituted coconut milk because I am alergic to milk. It is still high in sugar. Yet with all the fruit and nuts it can be a good source of energy as you are busily preparing for the party, or the perfect snack to feed to your guests.

- Put the almond paste in the center of the dough and fold tightly together to form the loaf, seal up the seam and fold over the top to form a lip. (this is to complete the look of a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes.).
- Let rise for one hour and then brush with an egg wash consisting of half an egg with 1/2 cup coconut milk.
- Meanwhile preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 350 and then reduce the temperature to 300 and bake for another 30-40 minutes.

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.

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.
