Christmas stollen recipe
Method
Step 1
Briefly pulse flour, baking powder, caster sugar, meal, cardamom and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a processor to combine. Add butter and cheese and pulse until a sandy mixture. Add egg, yolk, milk, brandy, vanilla and almond extracts, and process to a dough, then turn out onto a floured bench. Scatter with sultanas and peel, then knead until incorporated and dough is smooth. Cover in plastic wrap. Chill for 15 minutes.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 180°C and line a baking tray. On a floured surface, roll dough to a 24cm x 36cm rectangle. With 1 long side facing you, fold one third of the dough away from you into the centre, then fold over again to make a long rectangle (about 12cm x 36cm). Place fold-side down on tray, brush with melted butter, then bake for 45 minutes or until slightly risen and golden, and a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool on a rack.
Step 3
Meanwhile, gradually mix icing sugar with 2-3 tablespoons water to make a soft icing. Drizzle over cooled stollen, then sprinkle with cherries and cachous.
