Instructions

1 Warm up the milk until warm (not boiling) and add the 80 grams of sugar and the
dried yeast. Let this sit for a couple of minutes. Add the flour to the bowl of
your food processor. Add the milk in the middle, together with the butter and 2
big eggs, salt, cardamom, and vanilla extract.
2 Mix this in the food processor until you have a smooth dough. Cover it and let
it rest for 30 minutes in a warm spot in your home.
3 Knead the dough again on a floured surface and divide it into 2 halves.
4 Roll out the first half of the dough in a big square of approximately 22 x 27
cm. Brush with soft butter. Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle half of the
mixture on the dough.
5 Roll the dough up and do the same for the other half dough.
6 Cut the rolls into pieces. every piece should be around 3 cm thick. Put them on
a tray with parchment paper. Make sure that there is enough distance between the
rolls. Lightly press them a bit flat.
7 Let the rolls rest for another 30 minutes. In the meantime warm up your oven to
180°C / 356°F. Mix the small egg with the tbsp of milk and brush this mixture on
the rolls. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
8 Let them cool down and enjoy!
