This is my first Daring Bakers challenge, but as excited as I was to join the bakers, I wasn't too enthusiastic about making stollen. It seemed a little boring and, you know, Christmasy. (Which is fine when you celebrate Christmas, but less inspiring when you don't.)
In fact, I put off baking the stollen until the day before the posted pictures were due. Happily, I had a wonderful time baking with my mom, and the stollen turned out beautifully. I'm looking forward to my next Daring Bakers' challenge!

Welcome to Daring Bakers! Your stollen is gorgeous! I'm glad you had a go at it even though you don't celebrate Christmas. It is a delicous bread for breakfast anytime of the year! I love the concept of you blog. I was raised the old fashion way and still make all my dinners from "scratch". This is common where I live. I did stop making bread though as it was a bit crazy in the mornings slicing and making lunches! LOL! Have fun with DB's and you blog!
Thanks, Marcellina! I'm getting ready to make the January challenge this weekend. Good luck to you!
