Zubereitung von Kugelhupf

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 10-cup Kugelhupf pan (or two 1 lb loaf tins).
Cream together 200g (1 ½ cups) softened butter and 200g (1 ½ cups) granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes with a mixer).
Add the zest of 1 lemon and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, alternating with 200g (2 cups) sifted all-purpose flour. Begin and end with the flour.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of dark rum (optional). Gradually add the remaining 200g (2 cups) sifted flour, mixing until just combined.
If the batter is too dry, add 2-4 tablespoons of milk until it reaches a spoonable consistency. Do not overmix; the batter should be thick but not stiff.
Gently fold in 100g (1 cup) sultanas, 100g (1 cup) currants, and 100g (1 cup) mixed candied peel.
Pour batter into the prepared pan(s).
Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the Kugelhupf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
