A cookbook on the universe, The Elder Scrolls, will be published by Bombora in May. We publish an excerpt – a recipe for a sweet roll. Unlike the roll itself, the recipe will stay with you forever.
Sweet roll
Don’t let anyone steal your sweet roll anymore! Instead of protecting hard-earned bakery products from robbers and this intrusive guild of thieves, you can now bake them in the silence and security of your home, and no one will even notice.
Preparation: 10 minutes
Proofing: 30 minutes
Baking: 15 minutes
It turns out: 4 large rolls
Great couple: morning coffee or tea, sausages for breakfast
Ingredients
Roll:
– Melted butter – 40 g
– Whole warm milk – 240 ml
– Honey – 2 tbsp. l.
“Salt is a pinch.”
– Egg – 1 pc.
– Active dry yeast – 2 tsp.
– Flour – 280 g
Glaze:
– Softened cream cheese – 2 tbsp. l.
– Soft butter – 15 g
– Powdered sugar – 115 g
– Fatty cream – 2 tbsp. l.
For rolls
01
Preheat oven to 180 degrees. In a large bowl, combine butter, warm milk and honey, stir until honey is dissolved.
02
Add salt and yeast, then egg and flour and knead until smooth. Distribute it evenly over four 12 cm diameter muffin tins.
03
Leave the dough to thaw for 30 minutes, then bake for 15 minutes until dry with a toothpick.
For the glaze
01
While the rolls are baking, mix the cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar in a small bowl. Gradually add the cream until you get a smooth thick icing that barely drains from the spoon.
02
When the rolls are baked, let them cool in the form for 5 minutes, then remove and place on a wire rack to cool. When they have cooled completely, apply the glaze to the rolls, allowing it to drain nicely around the edges.
