German Christmas Stollen

Stollen is a yeast bread sprinkled with rum soaked candied fruit, candied citrus peels, raisins and almonds. It is traditionally eaten on Christmas morning in Germany. The manner in which the loaves are folded over represents the Christ child, swaddled tightly. The generous dusting of powdered sugar represents the newly fallen snow.
