I agree with Amy about the salted/unsalted butter. I also prefer the taste of salted. Also, the idea of making this with yeast is appealing. That is the "stollen" I usually make. Still, if this stollen and the yeast based ones are not compared (apples to oranges), then this is a very good recipe. I don't care for dried fruit, so I used a few raisins and almond paste (which I really like). I'm sure it changed the flavor significantly, but we liked it. I always appreciate the detail you go into in your recipes. thanks
