I made this yesterday morning. It worked out really well. I love the flavor the ricotta imparts. It tastes like some of the Christmas goodies from my Massachusetts childhood. I made three smaller loaves instead of 2--know thy audience--and will be sending one to my parents on Monday. (Currently iced in, so mail will have to wait.) My mother loves stollen but would never make it for herself. I bumped up the almonds a little because they're her favorite. Thanks for a great recipe!
So glad we were able to find, together, the taste of your youth....there's nothing that compares to those food memories at the holidays! Irene @ KAF
