I really don't know where to turn. My wonderful next door neighbors were from Germany and we made this wonderful bread together last year. Sadly, they have moved back to Germany and I just can't remember "how" we made it. I have the recipe, IN GERMAN, and I am desperate to have it translated so I can make it for Christmas Eve.

Can anyone help me?

I would so appreciate it!

Thank you so much!!!
