Tall Skoleboller

Ingredients

  • Milk 1 cup
  • Instant Yeast 3 tsp
  • Granulated Sugar 1-⅓ cups
  • Cardamom 1 tsp
  • Vanilla Extract 1 teaspoon
  • Flour 2 1/4 cups
  • Butter 5 tblsp
  • Milk 1 1/4 cup
  • Granulated Sugar 1-⅓ cups
  • Egg Yolks 3
  • Cornstarch 2 tblsp
  • vanilla pod 1
  • Powdered Sugar 2 cups
  • Water 3 tablespoons
  • Shredded Coconut 1 cup

Instructions


Heat the milk until it's lukewarm. Add the yeast and dissolve.

Add the sugar, cardamom, vanilla, and about 2/3 of the flour.

Mix the dough together either by hand or in a mixer with a dough hook, slowly adding the rest of the flour. You might need a bit more or less flour to form dough that isn't too sticky to knead. When the dough forms a nice ball, add the softened butter and continue to knead the dough for about ten minutes.

Roll the dough into a cylinder and cut into six equal parts. Roll each piece into a round bun and set them in a greased muffin/cake tin. Cover and let rise until doubled in size (about an hour).
