    Preparation Steps

    1

    Crumble the yeast into the lukewarm milk, add a pinch of sugar, and let it proof for 10 minutes.

    2

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon.

    3

    Add the proofed yeast, melted butter, and dark chocolate. Mix and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.

    4

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in volume.

    5

    Incorporate the raisins and almonds into the risen dough. Shape the stollen into a long, oval form and fold the two ends slightly inward.

    6

    Place the stollen on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let it rest for 30 minutes.

    7

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown. During the last 10 minutes, cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.

    8

    Let the baked stollen cool completely, then sprinkle the top with powdered sugar.
