Walnut Rolls

Hi Friends!

We are back to -21C today. Yesterday was rather nice for 2 days, it was only -8 C. But that's not really what I wanted to share. I also had a car accident last night. I stopped at stopping sign, no car opposite me, then lots of cars driving through the road in front of me, then when the last car was driving through, I saw a car stopped opposite me. I gave him a way to drive first as he was going straight while I wanted to turn left. He waited, perhaps since he saw me been stopping at the stopping sign for a bit, who knows why he waited. So seeing that he didn't drive still, I was like thinking, ah maybe he was giving me the turn, so I looked left and right, and hit gas, and apparently he was thinking the same, why I waited still when he wasn't moving, so he hit gas as well. So yep. We almost collided. We hit brake super close one to another. Crazy. Winter driving at night is crazy for sure 😵‍💫 Next time I will wave like nuts when I'm giving a way, so opposite driver(s) would know (that I am nuts 😁).

Anyhoo!

Here is the recipe for the Walnut Rolls 😊 This recipe make 2 large rolls if not 3 smaller size 😊 (whoa! So many nuts talk today 🤣)

3 c walnut fine meal
1 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla essence
1 c milk

1 kg flour
A pinch of salt
400 g unsalted butter

250 ml lukewarm milk
1 tbsp sugar
2.5 tsp active dry yeast

100 g icing sugar
2 yolks

1 egg, separate

Let's make the filling first.

Cook fine meal walnut, sugar, vanilla, and milk til bubbly and mixed well. Take off from heat and stir in a large handful golden raisins. Let cool to room temperature completely. This can be prepared a day in advance.
