Kulich Easter
Yes, that's such a great name... And this is all despite the fact that the Easter baking I have always been treated, to put it mildly, cool, eating rarely and very selectively -- to do something nice for your family, 6 years ago, I've gone through about 20 different recipes of cakes and stopped there. What I want to say, now every year I bake cakes for this recipe, others try don't even want!!! If You haven't decided what cake you bake, I advise you to try this right now, reducing the proportion of the 5 (10) times. Looked through all 12 pages of cakes, have not found.

Cooking

step-0
I must say that the cakes I bake a lot. Of this amount makes about 25 cakes (the size of different forms, but the bulk - tins green peas), view the photos below, so if You don't need, decrease the amount of 2 times (or more). To begin with, prepare the dough. In warm milk add yeast, 15 tbsp sugar, 3 tbsp flour mix and leave for 1 hour in a warm place.
step-1
Then add to the dough eggs, sugar, softened (I do this in the microwave) margarine (or if you prefer, replace it with butter), salt, vanilla sugar, washed raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg, vodka, sieved flour and make dough. It should be slightly moist, slightly stick to hands, do not hammer it heavily with flour. Leave for about 1 hour in a warm place without drafts, covered with a towel. The dough should increase by almost 2 times.
step-2
Come our dough.
step-3
Prepare the molds. I got them from-under canned green peas, corn, and coffee. Pre-pregnancy, I was given the task of parchment paper to cut circles and strips of the desired length. On the bottom of the form put a circle of parchment paper. Boca also zastelit parchment – "column," with overlapping, 4 - 5 cm above the edge of the form. This method gives the possibility of low molds to get a nice, high cake.
step-4
Hands greased with refined oil separates from the dough pieces and put them in molds. The dough should take 1/3 - 1/2 of the form. Leave it to cakes rasstalis in the form of 20 -30 minutes. In the oven the cakes will rise, so don't leave! To clarify one point. You can fill jars 1/3 and rasstavat the batter into them so that the cakes are more light and airy. Can also fill to 1/2 and shorten the proofing time, then the mud pies are more dense and hearty.
step-5
Bake in the oven at temperature 180 – 200 degrees. Little as 20 minutes, large – 40 minutes. The first 15 – 20 minutes in the oven should not be opened! From my own experience: in the oven cakes large set – back, small – closer to the edge. As cooking takes. On the bottom of the oven you can put a container of water to the bottom of the cake does not burn. Finished cakes remove from the oven and put to one side. Remove from the mold when cooled.
step-6
Decorate with frosting and sprinkles (can be colored coconut). Frosting: with a mixer, beat chilled whites with a pinch of salt until the moment when, after the Corolla will remain the furrow-trail. Next, gradually add the powdered sugar or very fine sugar. I'm the grinding regular sugar in a small bowl of a food processor with a knife-grinder. To give the glaze a slight acidity, add a few drops of lemon juice. Leave the icing to dry.
step-7
Cut.
step-8
And one more thing. I bake my cakes always on the Saturday before Easter. This pictures last year. It so happened that the photograph main picture and the cut I was only on 10-th day (this is evident in the glaze, it is of course dried up). So, try to turn the minuses into pluses, I will add a couple of photos where you can see that even at 10-th day the cake is still very edible, not dry, not "oak". Here I made the grooves with your finger.
step-9
Are You sure that Your cake will be the same on the 10-th day? By the way, keep finished cakes, after drying the glaze, the better in plastic bags (tie the top) or in a large pot under the lid.
step-10
Enjoy your meal, delight your family and enjoy yourself!!!
