When the scent of cinnamon, butter, and vanilla filled the kitchen in December, we knew Christmas was near. Grandma would take out her old baking tin, the table was dusted with flour, and soft Christmas music played on the radio. The Quark Stollen wasn’t just any cake – it was a symbol of togetherness, patience, and love.
🌟 The Magic of Quark Stollen
Unlike the traditional Dresden Stollen, this version uses no yeast – thanks to the quark, it stays wonderfully moist and doesn’t require long rising times. Perfect for those who love spontaneity but still want a taste of tradition.
