Discover a unique twist on the classic Sweet Cheese Buns with this creative method of assembly.
Choose from cheese or another filling you prefer, making sure it's not too liquid. Suitable options include combinations like jam with nuts or raisin/apricot paste.
Cut it into pieces, each about the size of a walnut, or slightly larger. Roll them into balls and let sit for 10 minutes.
Combine the cheese with sugar, raisins, vanilla extract, and 1 egg. If the cheese is too moist, consider omitting the egg or using just a small amount.
Flatten each dough ball into a circle. Make three cuts around the edges at equal distances, leaving about 2 cm in the center — refer to the image.
Place one tablespoon of the cheese filling in the center.
Wrap the filling with one of the dough pieces, ensuring the edges are well-sealed.
Repeat with the next dough "petal", overlapping the first. The last piece will close the "rose"—hold the edges securely at the base.
Continue making all the "roses", arrange them on a baking tray, brush with beaten egg, and let them rise for about half an hour.
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 25-30 minutes until they are golden brown.
Let them cool a bit and enjoy with satisfaction!
Bon appétit!
