Introduction: The Best Nutella and Lotus Rolls
Since I was little, I used to bake in my free time. For events, family, friends or even for myself.
Every time I was baking I felt like I am making an experiment and I've never wrote down my recipes.
One day, I was making Challah and i had leftovers of dough, so i decided to upgrade it and add Nutella chocolate and it was ended with something that looked like Rugelach.
After it vanished in an hour, I realize it is a successful experiment.
The second time I've made it, I tried to make them to be more in the shape of rolls.
This recipe is fairly easy to make, and in this Instructable I will demonstrate the whole process.
Hope you will enjoy it ! (:
Step 1: Ingredients and Tools
Ingredients for the dough:
4 cup all-purpose flour
25g dry yeast
1 vanilla instant pudding
1 tbsp. brown sugar
1 1/2 cup milk
1 eggs
40g butter
1/2 tps. salt
Other Ingredients:
- 1 eggs
- Nutella
- Lotus Biscoff Spread
Tools:
- Large bowl
- Clean kitchen towel
- Rolling pit
- Egg brush
*TIP*: Preheat the oven to 190°C
Step 2: Mix
- Mix all of the mentioned ingredients (for the dough) in a stand mixer for 5 minutes on speed level two and 7 minutes on speed level four.
- The dough should be smooth after mixing and make sure it is not sticking to the bowl.
Step 3: Let the Dough Rise
- Cover the dough and let it rest for a total of 30 minutes at 20-22°C
Step 4: Preparations
While the dough rests we will prepare:
- the surface on which we will place the rolls - place baking paper on a baking pan.
- the surface on which we will work - sprinkle flour on a clean space.
Optional: play tic-tac-toe while waiting.
Step 5: Status Check
- Check if the dough rise double than it was.
- Take out the dough and put it on the floured surface.
Step 6: Filling
- Take a small piece of dough - in a size of a fist.
- Roll down using the rolling pin.
- Spread Nutella or Lotus Spread as you wish.
- Gently roll the dough.
- Cut the edges off and cut the rest into equal pieces.
Place in the baking pan.
Step 7: Egg Wash
Scrumble an egg into a small bowl.
Use the egg brush and brush all the rolls.
Step 8: Baking Time
- Preheat the oven to 190°C
Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 9: Done!
Finally, you can make a cup of coffee and enjoy!

Do you put two eggs in the dough, use two eggs for the wash, or one egg in the dough and one for the wash?

You're right! one egg for dough and one for the wash. I updated the instructions (:

Your instructions are incomplete.
As somebody already asked about the eggs. It is probably common sense for some people but, it was a valid question: "Do you put two eggs in the dough, use two eggs for the wash, or one egg in the dough and one for the wash?"
You write: "Mix all of the mentioned ingredients". Again, The Nutella or Lotus Spread are part of the ingredients. That is really misleading to the untrained cook.
You list 1 vanilla instant pudding. 1 what? Ounce, package, tbsp? You need tio be specific?

DISAPPOINTED!! - I don't have a stand mixer, but even still, this was the STICKIEST dough I've ever made in my life! Even after adding a 5th cup of flour, there was no possible way I'd ever be able to roll it out with a rolling pin!! Being too frugal (and too much of a Nutella fan) to throw the entire batch in the trash, I instead spooned it into muffin tins (2) and made something resembling a thumbprint cookie/muffin. Tastes good, but I've already thrown my copy of this recipe into the garbage!
