Looks delicious, thought the "classic" Roscón doesn't have any filling. It's true that the last years different varieties are prepared with cream, chocolate cream or "cabello de ángel" (sweet filling made with a special pumpkin), among others, but I prefer the "real" one, so I can dip it into my hot chocolate :) And there's one ingredient I miss in your recipe: orange flower water. It's very important because it gives the Roscón its traditional (and magic) aroma. I like to add also a bit of rum. I haven't seen any Roscón here with a nuts and fruits filling, but it seem great! Maybe I'll make two Roscones this year ;) Merry Christmas from Murcia (Spain) I love learning from people who grew up with traditions like this. Orange flower water makes perfect sense, and when I make this again I'll be sure I have some. Thanks! Susan
