Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Dissolve the yeast in warm milk, add salt and sugar. Cover and let it rise for about 20 minutes.
Step 2
In a large bowl, knead the dough, adding melted butter, sour cream, powdered sugar, egg yolks, and 480 g of flour. Cover with a towel and leave in a warm place for 1 hour. (Make sure the dough doesn't overflow).
Step 3
After an hour, deflate the dough. Add chocolate, raisins, and candied fruits. Mix well and leave in a warm place. The dough should rise a second time.
Step 4
Once the dough has risen, it's time to bake. Fill the molds halfway (as the dough will rise in the oven). Bake for 30-40 minutes at 180°C.
Step 5
While the kulich is baking, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form (you can add food coloring). A few minutes before they are done, take out the kulich, cover with the meringue, and return to the oven for a few minutes.
Step 6
Remove the kulich from the oven and while the meringue is still soft, decorate the kulich with candied fruits, chocolate, and nuts.
