[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm half-German & generally love German baked goods but the Christmas fare...? A big bunch of Weihnachten misses. Stollen (v. dry fruit cake) - Blech Lebkuchen (spice cookies) - Blech Pfeffernusse (more spice cookies) - Blech And also all hard to make. You know you've gotten it right when it's a dry as a desert.[/quote] Actual German here. If your Stollen is dry, it's not made right or it's old. Ditto for Lebkuchen, but you have to like spice. German sweets are generally far less sweet than American ones, so they are often not as well liked by Americans raised on more sweet desserts. [/quote] Every Stollen I've eaten - here, in Germany, and even those made by my fairly expert baker Oma - has been dry dry dry. [/quote]
