School Buns with Vanilla Custard - Norwegian children love these buns with a center of vanilla custard. Use the vanilla custard here or use vanilla pudding, but use only 1/2 the milk.
Ingredients
- Skoleboller
- 1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup melted butter, scant
- 1/2 cup sugar, scant
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
- 4 cups unbleached flour, approximate
- Filling
- 1 recipe Eggekrem (Vanilla or Rum Egg Custard)
- 1 recipe Melisglasur (Confectioners' Sugar or Chocolate Glaze)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut meat
Directions
- Heat the milk to 110°F, and dissolve the yeast in the milk. Add melted and cooled butter. Add the sugar and cardamon, and enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, up to 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turn once, and let rise to almost double in bulk. Remove once during the rising period and knead slightly.
- When risen, roll into 12-14 balls and place on parchment
covered cookie sheet. Make a deep indentation in the center and
let the balls to raise until light and smooth.
Generously fill the indentation with 1 recipe of Vanilla Egg Custard. Bake in 480°F 10-12 minutes. Cool on racks. - When cool, encircle the egg custard with a thick band of confectioner's sugar glaze. Dip in shredded coconut, it will adhere to the glaze. And uhm, uhm, you will have contented children.
