Kugelhof

== Description ==
=== Ingredients ===
* 1 lbs flour
* 1/4 lbs butter
* 2 large eggs
* 1 cup milk
* 3 tbsp powdered sugar (confectioner's)
* 1 tbsp yeast
* 1/4 cup dried Raisins, marinated in brandy
* 2 tbsp chopped almonds
* 1/4 tsp salt
== Directions ==
# In a large pot, mix together the milk, Sugar, and butter. 
# Cook over low heat, just enough to let the butter melt. 
# When the butter melts, transfer to a large mixing bowl. 
# Let it cool for 30 minutes. 
# Add the eggs, yeast, salt, Raisins, and flour - little by little. 
# Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until smooth. Let the *dough* rest for about 30 minutes. 
# Preheat the oven to 400 F (or 200 C). Arrange chopped almonds at the bottom of a greased *kugelhof* mold. 
# (loaf pan or cake mold is ok - kugelhof mold is a round mold with a well in the middle) 
# Add the dough, then bake in the oven for 40 – 45 minutes, until cooked. 
# Check by inserting a knife in the middle. If it comes out clean, then the cake is cooked. 
# Remove from oven and let it cool for 1 hour. 
# Remove from the mold, then dust with powdered sugar. Serve warm.
