Steps:
- Warm up the milk in the microwave or on the stove. It should be slightly warm, not hot or boiling!
- Put the flour into a large mixing bowl and add the instant dry yeast (check packaging instructions to make sure it doesn't have to be dissolved in water or milk first). Sprinkle the sugar on top. Now add the lukewarm milk and knead everything using the spiral dough hooks of your mixer.
- Add the vanilla extract, soft butter, egg, and a pinch of salt. Keep kneading the dough for around 5 minutes until it forms a ball and no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. If it is too sticky, add a little bit more flour. If it is too crumbly, add some more milk.
- Place a towel or lid over the bowl and let the ball of dough rise for at least one hour in a warm place without a draft.
- After about 55 minutes, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare your baking pan by either greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
- Once the whole hour is up and the ball of dough has significantly increased in size, give it another knead before lightly flouring your countertop and rolling out your dough to fit your baking sheet/pan. We use a baking pan with approx. dimensions of 13.5 x 9.5 inches. Place the dough into the baking pan.
- For the topping, take the butter out of the fridge and cut it into small cubes. Use your fingers - or the handle of a wooden spoon or butter knife, for example - to make small, evenly placed dents into the top of the rolled out dough. Make sure to not poke through to the baking pan! Place the pieces of cold butter into the holes. Now sprinkle the top of the dough with sugar and sliced almonds.
- Place the cake in the oven to bake for around 25 - 30 minutes until the almonds on top are slightly browned. Since every oven is different, your cook time might vary slightly.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool. Cut it into slices before serving. Enjoy!
