Cooking

In a small saucepan, pour the milk and water, add butter and heat. The oil should be liquid, but boiling the mixture to bring not necessary. Remove the pan from the heat.

Egg yolks, vanilla and sugar beat in the lush foam.

To egg mixture add the sifted with salt, flour, milk, butter and yeast.

Knead the dough. The dough was a bit sticky, but in the process of mixing becomes soft, manageable, plastic.

Put the dough in a bowl greased with vegetable oil, tighten with cling film and put for an hour.

The dough after an hour.

Put the dough on a work surface sprinkled with flour, punch down, divide into three equal parts. (for 275-280 g each) Round billet, cover with a towel and leave for 10 minutes.

At this time, prepare the filling. Cranberries and raisins rinsed in hot water, dry with a paper towel. Nuts chopped, not finely. Oil we need soft. So I just pre-took out of the fridge and left at room temperature on the table.

Sprinkle work surface and dough with flour. Roll a round billet into a thin rectangular layer. (approximately 28 to 33 cm) roll the Dough as thin as possible, especially since it is not difficult. The dough is rolled out very easily, but not torn. Lubricating layer of softened butter. (1/3 of 100 g)

Sprinkle a layer of dough cranberries (1/3), raisins (1/3 part) and crushed almonds (1/3).

Rolled into a roll.

In the same way to do with the other two pieces. Put all three rolls on the Board, sprinkled with flour, cover with a towel and place in a warm place for 15-20 minutes.

Each roll cut lengthwise with a sharp knife, stepping back from a couple of inches.

Spinning spiral one half of the roll to the beginning.

And then the second half to tighten the spiral, picking up and stacking on top of the first.

That's what happens.

Gently place the cake into the form, cover with cling film and leave in a warm place for 20 minutes to rise. I have three forms with a diameter of 12 cm, height 10 cm (two paper, one detachable)

At this time, preheat the oven to 180*. Bake cakes at a temperature of 35-40 minutes. 15 minutes after the beginning of the baking, cover cakes with foil. Naturally, you should consider the features of your oven.

To get the cakes from the oven and allow to cool in molds for 10-15 minutes.

Then release the cakes from forms and put it on the grill until cool.

Decorate according to your desire:to pour glaze or sprinkle with powdered sugar.
