this was quite an experience for me! i wanted to try the recipe out before i make them as gifts for friends. indeed a great bread but takes a long time to produce just one loaf!
There is something wrong with the amount of fluid - it didn't form a dough, and needed lots more liquid. Also you had salt in the ingredients but didn't mention where to add it in the instructions. The loaf was a bit of a disappointment - I've had much better stollen.

Total disaster!! Not enough liquid is correct. An expensive recipe that flopped.
It was good but I found it very heavy. Tasty though!!!! Stollen is dense but is not heavy/solid when sliced as I found this recipe to be.
This version of German Stollen is perfect if you want something special to give or serve to someone you love.
I thought it was great. Perhaps humidity is affecting some peoples results. Ithought it was very nice!
I had no problem making this delicious bread -- my family ate it within minutes.
