One of my dear friends in Florida gave me this Stollen recipe. I sent a loaf of it to my girl's each year in their Christmas boxes. They always looked forward to it. Now they make their own and serve it with a dish of fresh orange sections and enjoy it with their Christmas brunch. Yummy, yummy, I get some too!
