PLACEK
A delicious coffee cake my mom makes every holiday and which my relatives love. My family tends to prefer the coffeecake without the nutmeg, so you might want to try it with and without.

Steps:
- Put raisins in a bowl and pour in enough water to cover; set aside until raisins begin to plump, at least 15 minutes.
- Dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
- Heat milk and 1/2 cup butter together in a saucepan over medium-high heat until milk is heated just below boiling, about 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool scalded milk to lukewarm temperature.
- Beat 1 cup sugar, eggs, salt, nutmeg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; add milk mixture and yeast mixture and stir until just combined. Drain raisins and stir into sugar mixture. Beat flour, 2 cups at a time, into sugar mixture, beating well after each addition until dough is well mixed. Set bowl in a warm area of the kitchen, cover with a clean towel, and allow dough to double in size, about 2 hours.
- Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans.
- Beat dough down to release air and pour into the prepared loaf pans.
- Mix 1 cup sugar, 1 cup flour, and 1 tablespoon butter together in a bowl using 2 knives in a scissor-like fashion until crumbly; sprinkle over dough. Allow dough to double in size, 30 to 45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 310 degrees F (154 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a loaf comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Remove loaves from pans and cool on a wire rack.

Steps:
- Beat the eggs with the sugar for 5 minutes at high speed. Add to the butter by small portions Add vodka, vanilla, and lemon rind, beating constantly. Add the baking powder and flour, beat 5 more minutes until the batter is thick. Mix the nuts, raisins, orange rind and cornstarch separately, then fold into the batter Bake at 350F for 1 hour in a loaf pan that has been buttered and floured or buttered and sprinkled with bread crumbs.
- Notes: I've tried it both ways, and find the bread crumbs do a better job than flouring the pan.
GRANDMA'S PLACEK
Placek (plah-sek) in Polish just means cake, but placek around back home (and probably other cities with a high Polish population) refers to a sweet yeast bread topped with sugary crumble, with golden raisins served on Easter. You hardly see placek, which is a shame! This bread can also be wrapped well and frozen, then taken out as necessary for eating and giving away, meaning it can be made ahead of time! Placek is the kind of bread that begs to be spread with butter - it's not like a moist sour cream coffee cake. It has a drier crumb, making it an even better partner to coffee or tea.

Steps:
- Heat milk in a small saucepan until it reaches 110 degrees. Remove from heat; stir in yeast and 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar until completely dissolved. Let stand until foamy, 10 to 15 minutes.
