Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for PANESCONE
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder and whisk until there are no lumps.
  3. Cut cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk, then pour into the dry ingredients, stirring gently.
  5. Fold in the candied fruit, ensuring even distribution without overmixing.
  6. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into rounds about 1 inch thick on the baking sheet.
  8. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Allow the PANESCONE to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
