Kouglof

French called this "a poor brioche", that is , it is made with a brioche dough that has fewer eggs and less butter than the norm. This is very delicious, very buttery and the taste is wonderful. Thumbs up!!! Recipe by Dorie Greenspan - Paris Sweets.

  2. Dizzy,

    I used a 9" gugelhopf pan. You're good with your fondant...I saw it in IK.

  5. In Alsace (France), where the kougelopf come from, we use to powder it with powder sugar and to put almonds on top. Here is a picture of the very traditional one : http://www.boulangerie.net/BoulBN/regions/regionimg/alsace.jpg
