Merry, Happy, Joyous, Peaceful!

It is amazing how differently each Stollen turns out. This year when I put them to rise I thought they'd be uniform and smallish! Ha, this is the big bully, the smaller one has been frozen for Valentine's Day as is usual. I often wonder who else is making this 1976 recipe from Woman's Day magazine. If you are, please let me know, and tell me of your variations on the ingredients. I have a list of 10 different fruit and nut combinations I use, it varies year to year. Rarely the ones stated in the original recipe. I also chill it over night before mixing in the fruit and baking it.
