Quick yeast Easter cake

Ingredients
Step-by-step preparation
STEP 1

Crumble fresh compressed yeast into a mixing bowl. Add 1 tbsp. sugar and warm milk (all).
STEP 2

Mix the yeast and milk well until smooth. Add 4 tbsp. flour (sift from the total amount), stir, cover and leave for half an hour.
STEP 3

Pour boiling water over the raisins and leave. It took you 2 minutes (well, 5 if you are a brooding melancholic like me).
STEP 4

When the dough has risen, drain the water from the raisins, add zest and vanilla. Mix well. Another 1 minute, including grating the zest.
STEP 5

Mix eggs and yolks with sugar and soft butter.
STEP 6

Add the dough to the egg mixture. Stir.
STEP 7

Add (sieve) half the flour. Stir.
STEP 8

Add raisins. Stir. Until this stage, stir conveniently with a whisk, spatula or spoon.
STEP 9

add the second half of the flour (sifting is a must) and knead the dough. The dough kneads very easily and does not stick to your hands. The kneading took useful and important 5 minutes.
STEP 10

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover (preferably with film or two towels - dry and wet) and leave for 2-3 hours. You can go to the store or for a walk, or visit a neighbor (for a minute, as usual), and arrange a quiet hour with the children. Yes, you never know...
STEP 11

Punch down the fluffy dough.
STEP 12

Divide the dough into 2 parts (or according to the number of molds). This dough is designed for two medium Easter cakes with a diameter of 15 cm.
STEP 13

Cover and leave the cakes to rise for half an hour.
STEP 14

Make the glaze by mixing and lightly whisking powdered sugar, egg whites and lemon juice.
STEP 15

Bake the cakes - for this size you need 35 minutes at 180 degrees. To ensure even baking on all sides, place a bowl of water in the oven. Cool the cakes and brush them with glaze.
STEP 16

Decorate.
STEP 17

Let the glaze harden, keep it away from the fingers of those who want to try it.
STEP 18

What a handsome guy in cross-section.
STEP 19

The crumb is a fairy tale. And the hostess too - she prepared this in 15 minutes!
