Chocolate and Hazelnut Rolls (Çikolatalı Fındıklı Lokum)


For the dough:

500 g flour * 1 cup warm milk * 3 tbsp butter * 4-5 tbsp sugar * 1 tsp salt * 40 g powder yeast

For the filling:

5 tbsp raspberry jam * 50 g sugar * 50 g crumbled hazelnuts * 1 cup corn flakes * 160 g dark chocolate flakes

To garnish:


1 tbsp butter * 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Beat the sugar with the butter until it becomes creamy. Add the yeast, the milk, the flour and the salt and mix well. Let it wait for 20 minutes with the bowl covered. Open the dough on a surface sprinkled with flour. Cover the dough with the raspberry jam, then the sugar, the crumbled hazelnuts, the corn flakes and the chocolate flakes. Divide the dough in 3-4 parts, make rolls and place them on a greased round cake mold. Put a little butter on each roll. Bake on a 190º pre-heated oven for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with powder sugar and serve.

This sounds like a wonderful recipe. I am not much of a baker, but I may have to heat up my kitchen for these!
