Vasilopita - New Year’s Eve most favorite Greek custom (See below a great recipe)
Saint Basil-pie' or 'Vassilis pie in Greek is a New Year's Day Cake in Greece, which contains a hidden coin which gives good luck to the receiver. It is associated with Saint Basil's day, January 1. It is made of a variety of dough, depending on regional and family tradition.
On New Year's Day families share the vasilopita to bless the house and bring good luck for the New Year. This is usually done at midnight of New Year's Eve. A coin is hidden in the Cake by slipping it into the dough before baking. A piece of cake is sliced for each member of the family and any visitors present at the time, by order of age from eldest to youngest. In older times, the coin often was a valuable one, such as a gold sovereign. Nowadays there is often a prearranged gift, money, or otherwise, to be given to the coin recipient.

250 g all-purpose flour
250 g sugar
250 g good quality cow butter (not margarine)
250 g pitted prunes
200 g dark chocolate
200 g white chocolate
200 g almonds
200 g hazelnuts
200 ml Cognac or brandy
6 eggs
2 tsp baking powder
Zest of 1 orange
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves

Coarsely chop the prunes and soak them in Cognac in advance for an hour.
In a food processor, sequentially add almonds, hazelnuts, and chocolates, then coarsely chop them.
Grate the zest of one orange.
In a mixer, beat the butter and sugar until fluffy for about five minutes. Gradually add the eggs, beating to homogenize the mixture.
Slowly add the flour to the mixture.
