How to make

Stir the milk and sugar until the sugar dissolves. To them add the lightly beaten eggs, the butter, orange zest, vanilla, rum, salt, flour and yeast.

Knead a soft dough and leave it to rise while covered. Divide the dough into 2-3 parts. Divide each of those into another 3, make cords from them. Smear each cord with additional oil.

Weave the cords together 3 at a time, put Turkish delight in one, raisins in the 2nd, leave the 3rd empty. Weave into a braid, place it in an oiled, floured tray. Leave to rise again.

Smear the risen cozonacs with egg yolk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake in a preheated 360°F (180 °C) oven about 20 min. or until golden.

Notes: The eggs and milk need to be at room temperature!

Keep in mind that this is a sweet dough which takes longer to rise. If putting them to rise in the oven, heat it to 120°F (50 °C) max!
