These scrolls are perfect for a cozy breakfast or a sweet snack any time of the day. Follow these steps to create these mouth-watering scrolls in your own kitchen.
Instructions:
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk until it's warm but not boiling (about 110°F or 43°C).
- Pour the warm milk into a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast and 1 tsp of sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg.
- Add the beaten egg and 4 cups of all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough begins to form. You may need to use your hands to bring it together. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
- Once combined, knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and allow it to rise in a warm place for approximately 1-1.5 hours or until it has doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and chopped dark chocolate.
- Roughly chop the macadamia nuts and set them aside.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Transfer it to a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Melt the butter and brush it over the entire surface of the dough.
- Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar and dark chocolate mixture over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Scatter the chopped macadamia nuts evenly over the top.
- Drizzle the maple syrup over the filling.
- Starting from one of the long edges, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Pinch the seam to seal it.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Arrange the scrolls in the prepared baking dish, cut-side up, leaving some space between each scroll.
- Cover the scrolls loosely with a kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
- Once risen, bake the scrolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Allow the scrolls to cool slightly before serving. They are best enjoyed warm.
With these simple steps, you've crafted delicious maple, chocolate & macadamia scrolls that are sure to impress. Enjoy them warm from the oven, and feel free to share this delightful treat with family and friends. Happy baking!
