Cozonac
Cozonac is a rich, sweet, leavened bread, often prepared for holidays like Christmas and Easter. It's characterized by its soft, brioche-like texture and is typically filled with walnuts, cocoa, or poppy seeds, creating a beautiful spiral when sliced. The dough is enriched with eggs, butter, and milk, and often flavored with citrus zest or vanilla.
