Introduction

old recipe for Italian Christmas bread - closer to cake.
This recipe is sweeter and much denser than what you get in the store. We don't put candied fruit in because we loathe it.
My family has been making this since at least my grandmother's days - she came to the U.S from Italy in the early 1940s.
