At the beginning of the 19th century, babka was served for Passover in Eastern European countries, but over time the recipe migrated to the menu for Easter celebrations. Since the mid-20th century, babka has been prepared with chocolate filling, and cinnamon and nuts are often added to it . The dough turns out very tender and, if stored properly (in the refrigerator in film), babka remains soft for up to three days. Usually, babka is not decorated in any way - it is beautiful as is, but for Easter it can be covered with icing like a kulich. Of all the recipes in the selection, this one is the editorial favorite.

This recipe is so detailed, especially for young housewives, young wives who have never worked with yeast dough before, but decided to please their young husbands and loved ones with delicious aromatic pastries for the holidays. This amount of ingredients is enough for 16-20 Easter cakes with a diameter of 7-8 cm and a height of 8-10 cm, but in the photo are very tiny Easter cakes, which I baked this year specifically so that they do not need to be cut at all and can be given to children whole. But if you have very good yeast, you can get more. Good luck! Be sure to cook Easter cakes in a good mood!
