Steps:
- Proof the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in a large bowl until slightly frothy.
- In the meantime, dissolve 1/2 cup sugar in the warm milk; allow to cool to lukewarm. Once cooled, add the milk mixture to the yeast mixture along with 4 cups of flour. Mix well with a wooden spoon. Cover and put in a dark, warm place until the mixture is bubbly and doubled in size, about 2 hours.
- Stir in the beaten eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup butter, salt, and lemon peel. Stir well to blend. Begin adding the remaining flour a cup at a time to form a very soft dough.
- Knead the dough on a floured board until soft and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours. Punch dough down, and allow to rise again for 30 minutes.
- Divide dough into three parts (see Cook's Note). Shape into slightly rounded loaves, and place on greased baking sheets. Let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Beat 1 egg with 1 tablespoon water; brush onto loaves.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in preheated oven until loaves are deep brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Once they are done, brush the tops with melted butter for a soft crust.

PASKA
Adapted from www.thespruce.com, this Ukranian paska recipe has no candied fruits, raisins or nuts. Because the amount of butter is on the lower end, this paska will be a bit on the drier side.

Steps:
- Heat milk over medium heat and remove it from the stove just as it's about to start boiling. Set aside to cool until tepid.
- Dissolve ½ teaspoon of sugar in water, then add yeast and mix until combined. Set aside for 10 minutes until the yeast activates.
- In a large bowl combine the yeast mixture, tepid milk, and 2 ½ cups (300g) of flour and beat until smooth. Cover the bowl with a cloth and wait until the dough rises.
- Next, combine the yeast starter with the beaten eggs, ½ cup of sugar, melted butter, salt, and 4 ½ - 5 cups (600g) of flour. Knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough, that does not stick to the hand and is not overly stiff.
- Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, and oil the top of the dough as well. Cover with an oiled plastic wrap and place in a warm place.
- Once the dough has doubled in size, punch the dough with your fist, and let it rise once again.
- Set aside 1/3 of the dough for decorating, and shape the rest into a round loaf. Place the loaf in a 10- to 12-inch (25-30 cm) greased round pan.
- Shape the leftover dough whichever way you like - into swirls, braids, rosettes, or crosses - and arrange them on top of the loaf.
- Cover the pan with an oiled plastic wrap and store it in a warm place until doubled in half.
- Set the oven to preheat to 400°F/200°C. In a small bowl beat the eggs and two tablespoons of water, then use it to brush the bread.
- Place loaf in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F/180°C and bake for another 40 minutes. In case the bread starts over-browning, cover it with aluminum foil.
- Once baked, place on a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the milk and 1 tablespoon of the sugar until very warm (120 to 130 F). Pour into a large mixing bowl, and sprinkle over the yeast. Allow to stand until foamy, about 15 minutes.
- Sift 1 cup of the flour over the yeast mixture and with a wooden spoon, stir until a batter forms. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and leave in a warm place (80 F to 85 F) until mixture looks puffy and spongy, about 1/2 hour.
- In another bowl or a 4 cup measure whisk the eggs and egg yolks together with the vanilla extract, grated lemon zest, and salt.
- Sift another 2 cups of flour over the risen yeast flour mixture, and make a well in the center. Pour in the egg mixture, and stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture becomes a soft, sticky dough; the dough should be as soft as possible, so do not add more flour unless it is very wet.
- Using your hand, spread the butter over the dough and work into the dough, folding it over itself and kneading into the dough until the butter is completely incorporated. Cover with the dish towel and leave to rise again in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 3 hours.
- Butter a 2 pound coffee can. Line the bottom with nonstick baking parchment, and butter again.
- Punch down the dough and turn onto a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle the raisins, golden raisins over the dough, and knead until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Form the dough into a ball shape, and ease into the coffee can. Cover and leave to rise again until the dough reaches the top of the can, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F Brush the top of the dough with a little milk and if you like sprinkle with about a tablespoon of sugar. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and bake about 1/2 hour longer; if the paska browns too quickly, cover with foil. Remove to a wire rack to cool in the can for about 5 minutes, then carefully unmold, top side up, to cool completely. Makes 1 loaf.
UKRAINIAN EASTER CHEESE (PASKA)
This unbaked cheese Paska was one of my mother Sofia's traditional Ukrainian Easter recipes. She passed away in 1995 so I have been making it ever since. It is easy to make, very rich, and a hit every time. Decorate with the fruits of your choice.
