Moldavian Sweet Rolls Recette

Comment préparer Moldavian Sweet Rolls

1. In a large bowl, combine warm water (105-115°F), yeast (2 1/4 tsp), and sugar (1 tbsp). Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
2. Add the milk (1/2 cup), egg (1 large), melted butter (1/4 cup), salt (1 tsp), and vanilla extract (1 tsp) to the yeast mixture.
3. Gradually add the flour (3 cups, plus more as needed), mixing until a soft dough forms.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if needed to prevent sticking.
5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
6. While the dough is rising, prepare the lemon filling: In a bowl, combine sugar (1/2 cup), cornstarch (2 tbsp), lemon zest (1 tbsp), and lemon juice (1/4 cup). Mix well.
7. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (approximately 12x18 inches).
8. Spread the lemon filling evenly over the dough.
9. Roll up the dough tightly from the long side.
10. Cut the roll into 12 equal slices.
11. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
12. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
13. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
14. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
15. Let cool slightly before serving and enjoy!
