Every year I baking a lot of stallens, give to family and friends, share a proven recipe.

Bake a lot every year. classicI give them to my family and friends. I’ve been dreaming of cooking cheese for a long time, but something stopped me. I thought it was hard and boring, but it wasn't here. Everything turned out to be simple and easy, even a beginner can cope with baking on “You”.

This recipe was shared with me by a colleague at work, she bakes stollen this way for many years.

Today's edition. "Site" I will give you instructions on how to prepare amazing stollen. It's literally melting in your mouth!



Cheese stollen Ingredients for dough

• 550g flour
• 2 eggs
• 15g baking powder
• 200g sugar
• 10g vanilla sugar
• 4 tbsp almond flour
• 300g cottage cheese
• 250g oil
• 0.5 lemons
• peel 1 orange
• 0.5 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 0.5 tsp coriander, cloves
• 0.5 tsp nutmeg and cardamom
• pinch
• 0.5 tsp badyan

Filling ingredients

• 500g dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, cherries)
• 150g nuts
• 200g candied
• 300ml Limonchelo
• juice

Preparation

1. At least a day before baking, soak dried fruit in Limonchelo and orange juice for an hour. Then pour this mixture into the jar and cover the lid. Leave it for a day, shake the jar periodically. As dried fruits, I usually use dark and light raisins, cranberries and cherries. You don't have to soak the cinnamon.
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. For test-making Blow the cottage cheese with a blender to a thick sour cream. If it is not possible to achieve such consistency, then you can add a little sour cream to the cottage cheese.
   
   
   
   
3. You can add spices to the dough according to your taste preference. By the way, also instead of the whole list of badyan, cloves and other things, you can simply add 2-3 tolspoons of a mixture of spices for ginger cookies to the dough. Room temperature oil with sugar and vanilla sugar. Add your favorite spices and salt. Stir it well.
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. Add eggs to the dough, mix everything for about a minute. Then add cottage cheese and almond flour. In two doses add flour with baking powder. Mix the soft dough. Add dried fruits, cereals and nuts (if desired). Pre-dry the nuts in the oven and grind with a knife.
   
   
   
   
5. On a dusty flour table, mix dried fruit and nuts into the dough so that they are evenly distributed on the dough. If necessary, you can add a little flour, but do not get too carried away by it, so that the dough does not come out clogged. Note that the dough should be soft, but it should not spread across the table.
   
   
   
   
   
   
6. Divide the dough into 2 or 3 parts (if small). Roll each in a rectangle and, retreating 1/3 from the edge, make a rolling hole. Now wrap the big side. That's how you shape all the stollens. Remove from the surface candy, raisins and cranberries so that they do not burn.
   
   
   
   
7. Bake stollenes in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees for 60 minutes until ready. Ready stollens abundantly lubricated with melted butter, and abundantly sprinkled with fine sugar and powdered sugar.
   
   
   
   

I would also like to know why you need to bake in large batches. This is a real quintessence of excellent taste and amazing aroma!



Keep them better wrapped in parchment paper and then in foil. I usually leave shtollens in a closed box on the balcony or in the closet. The main thing is that the baking does not get direct sunlight. They can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks. During this time Stollen will "mature"It is soaked in the aromas of Limonchelo with orange juice and will taste better.



Another tip: be sure to add to the dough almond-meal. It can be bought in the store, but it will be cheaper if you grind mine nuts into flour.

On Christmas and New Year cozy family evenings, this cottage cheese stollen wraps you in a unique taste and aroma!
