Steps:
- Mix 1 cup of flour with sugar, salt, and yeast in a bowl, stir well. Place milk and anise extract into a small saucepan over low heat, and warm to about 110 degrees F (43 degrees C). Make a well in the center of the flour mixture with your hand, and pour in the milk mixture; swirl with your hand in a circular motion to combine the flour mixture with the milk mixture. Mix in butter and eggs, one at a time, then mix in remaining flour until dough begins to pull together.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, and knead until soft but elastic, about 8 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth, and let dough rest for 10 minutes; cut dough into halves.
- On floured work surface, roll each half into a ball, then shape the balls into 2 long pieces, about 1 1/2 inches thick and 18 to 20 inches long. Pinch the 2 top ends together, and loosely twist the pieces to form a twisted loaf; pinch the bottom ends together, and tuck the two ends underneath the loaf. (Alternately, form the twist into a ring, and pinch the ends together.)
- Grease a baking sheet, lay the loaf onto the prepared sheet, and cover with a damp towel; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Brush loaf with beaten egg, and sprinkle with colored decorating dragees.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake the decorated loaf in the preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Watch closely towards the end of the baking time that the bread does not begin to burn. Transfer to wire rack immediately after baking to cool.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Lightly grease a large mixing bowl.
- Stir flour and eggs into yeast mixture; beat on medium-low speed for about 10 minutes, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Add cheese and softened butter; beat a few minutes more, until fully incorporated. Dough will be very sticky. Scoop dough into greased mixing bowl. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour. Deflate dough and gently fold it over itself; cover and let rise again for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans or a tube pan.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead slightly. Divide the dough in half, if using loaf pans, or shape it into a log if using a tube pan. Transfer dough to prepared pan(s). Let rise for 30 minutes.
- Bake in preheated oven until loaves are golden brown and sound hollow when their bottoms are tapped, about 60 minutes. Remove from pans and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

PASCA - ROMANIAN EASTER BREAD
Pasca (sometimes called paska or Easter Bread) is a traditional eastern Europe yeast bread that is soft and sweet. In Romania this bread is special because it has cheese cake center. My Romanian friend first made it for me with just the cheese cake middle with no bread, and it was wonderful, but I wanted to try this more traditional style with a braided bread circle.

Steps:
- Make the Bread Dough:.
- In a mixing bowl add 1 cup flour, 1 cup warm milk, and 2 tsp of dry yeast and stir to combine. Sprinkle 1/2 cup flour on top and let sit for 10-15 minutes until the mixture increases in volume and the flour on top is cracked looking.
- To the same bowl, add melted butter, oil, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, and mix until well combined.
- Slowly add the remaining 3 cups of flour while continuing to mix, adding only enough for the dough to clear the sides of the bowl, no more. Adding too much flour will cause the dough to be dry.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. If kneading by hand, use only enough flour to keep dough from sticking to hands and surface, being careful not to add too much.
- Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and leave to rise until doubled in volume, about 2 hours. I like to let dough rise in a closed (off) oven.
- Divide the dough into 4 sections.
- Roll one piece into a 10-inch circle and place it in the bottom of a well-buttered 10 inch springform pan.
- Shape the remaining pieces into thin ropes about 2.5 feet long and braid them together.
- Place the braided pieces in the springform pan, braiding the ends together to form a sealed circle.
- Cover and let rise for another 40 minutes.
- Make the Cheese Filling:.
- When is the dough has risen, preheat the oven to 375F and make the cheese filling.
- In a new mixing bowl, whisk together the cheese, eggs, sugar, raisins, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
- Assemble and Bake:.
- Beat egg with water, and brush the braid with the egg wash.
- Pour the cheese filling into the middle of the braided circle.
- Bake for 15 minute sat 375°F.
- Without opening the oven door, lower the oven temperature to 325F and bake for 45 more minutes or until the crust is deep brown.
- Turn off the oven and crack open the oven door a little bit. Allow the bread to cool slowly inside the oven.
- Slice and enjoy with a hot cup of tea!

- Activate yeast: In a bowl add the yeast and warm water, stir it a bit and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes to activate. You can also add 1 tbsp of sugar from the 1/2 cup of sugar needed for the dough, to help activate the yeast. The yeast should bubble up. If you don't see it bubble up, then the yeast is old. Do not proceed because your bread will not rise.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a sauce pan add the milk, butter, lemon zest and sugar. Heat it over medium-low heat just until the butter melts and the sugar is dissolved. Do not boil it, it just needs to be warm to the touch. If it gets too hot it can kill the yeast. Remove from heat. Whisk in the eggs.
- Make the dough: To the bowl of your mixer add the flour, the milk mixture, and the yeast mixture. Using the dough hook mix everything for about 5 minutes until everything is well blended together and the dough should come off the sides of the bowl. The dough will be a softer dough and somewhat sticky to your hands. The more you mix the dough the fluffier it will be.
- Let the dough rise: Take a large bowl and oil it with about 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil. Place the dough in the bowl and use the other tbsp of vegetable oil to rub over the dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a warm, draft free environment. Let the dough rise until it doubles in size, could take 1 to 2 hours. Alternatively you could let the dough rise in the mixer bowl.

- Warm up the milk to 110F/44C, add the sugar, and mix to dissolve. Add the yeast and set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 5 minutes or until frothy.
- Separate the eggs. For the dough, we will use only the yolks. (The egg white will be used to make the filling.)
- In a small bowl, mix yolks with the salt. Salt is essential in baking. It enhances the taste of the final product. Also, in this case, the salt intensifies the color of the yolks, and the bread will have a slightly yellow, beautiful color. Set aside.
