looking for a stollen recipes
 

20 years ago at my eldest daughter's christening, my then sister-in-law
brought a stollen her mother had made. Now before someone gets their
knickers in a twist about using 'pre-made' or 'canned' ingredients, close
this thread now and no one will get offended. The stollen was made using
Pillsbury crescent rolls. The mother has since died and the former
sister-in-law, although I still am cordial with her, couldn't boil water
without burning it, so forget getting a recipe from her. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
ginny

PS: it a 'memory' thing, this recipe, so please don't tell me I could make
my own stollen, I know that, what I want to do is replicate this one.

I think this 'might' be it (fingers crossed). But if there are any others,
please feel free to send them on as well.

It's not possible to make a stollen from canned crescent rolls... a
very different pastry... made something but not stollen.

I'm making only one comment: I don't understand the taste buds of
people who think Pillsbury bazooka breads of all kinds don't have an
odd/funny taste. This includes crescent rolls.

I agree. I used to think it was a strong baking soda flavor, but I'm
wondering if it's preservatives. Croissants taste like butter.
Crescents taste like chemicals.

Have a wee look here! I don't see why you couldn't use prepared dough!

Was it really really rich?

The German one we just bought is 952 calories a serving. So I've been
slicing it pretty thin.

I find whenever I've had "bam" breads or rolls that there is strange
saltiness to them that is very unpleasant.

It's a shame, too, because making Martha Stewart's mother's Stollen is
really easy (and really, really good) - just takes time.

They are just "off" somehow - I've never tried to determine what makes
them that way.

Ginny I Googled <crescent roll stollen> and got a bunch of hits. Did
you do a search?

Hmmm... I was going to make stuffed brioche pockets for Christmas brunch.
Maybe I'll use this dough instead; my bread machine could use the exercise!

My original plan was for two different stuffings (ricotta, peach schnapps &
peaches; spinach, bacon & cheese), but I don't think those would work as
well with the Christmas bread dough. If I do make the Christmas bread dough,
I think one filling would be Cajun hot sausage with cabbage, and the other
one would be any leftover cardamom-scented fresh cheese with candied
pistachios (which I'm making as part of my Christmas Eve dinner).

Thanks, Ranée!

mean....

I haven't made stollen in years, mostly because I am not fond of the
candied citron and peel. Rather, I make the world-famous eggnog bread
with dried fruits (apricots, raisins, cranberries, whatever I have in
the house) +/- nuts. I've posted the recipe here several times, so it
should be available on google.
