  • In a pot, place rum and raisins, bring to a boil, and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Mix milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar in a deep container. Add yeast and let rise for 5 minutes.
  • Add ¼ cup of flour to the milk and yeast mixture. Mix with a mixer. Add eggs, egg yolks, lime juice and peel, salt, and ⅔ cup of sugar and mix until a homogenous dough is formed.
  • Add remaining 3 cups of flour little by little. Make sure the mixer is at low speed to keep the flour from flying out.
  • Add butter little by little and beat until smooth and glossy for 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Remove raisins from brandy. Add raisins and chopped fruits to the dough and mix slowly until incorporated.
  • Transfer dough to a lightly greased deep container and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours until dough doubles its size.
  • The panettones should be baked in empty and clean coffee or evaporated or condensed milk cans.
  • Grease cans with butter and line bottom and sides with parchment paper.
  • Gently knead the dough with a bit of flour. Divide dough into two and place each portion into a can.
  • Cover cans with parchment paper and let proof for 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 356 °F. Prepare egg wash with one egg yolk and water and brush panettones.
  • Bake until the domes of the panettones are golden-brown for 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Unmold tasty panettone and let cool on a rack.
