1. We put the dry yeast in a bowl, fill it with water, preheated to a warm state, then pour sugar, mix, leave it for 10 minutes so that the reaction takes place.

2. Meanwhile, put the egg yolks in a separate bowl, beat them with a mixer, then pour the yeast mixture to them and pour the sifted flour.

Cover the bowl with the dough with a clean towel and leave it to come up in a warm place for two hours.

Then add the remaining yolks, knead the dough until elastic. At this stage, it should already be sufficiently plastic, not stick to your hands.

4. Melt the butter, pour it into the finished dough, add a pinch of salt and vanilla, as well as candied fruits and raisins, re-knead the dough so that the added ingredients are distributed as evenly as possible. Cover the bowl with the dough with a towel, leave it warm for an hour.
