Instructions

Step 1

• In a stand mixer or a bowl, activate the yeast by combining it with sugar and lukewarm milk. Let it sit for 10 minutes to bubble and froth.

Step 2

• Add half of the flour, melted butter, egg, vanilla powder, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well to form a dough. Gradually add the remaining flour and continue mixing until a soft dough forms. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1 hour.

Step 3

• Once the dough has risen, transfer it to a flat working surface and knead for a few minutes. Roll the dough out into a rectangle approximately 40 cm by 30 cm in size.

Step 4

• Spread pistachio paste evenly over the dough, then sprinkle crushed pistachios.

Step 5

• Starting from the shorter side, tightly roll the dough into a log.

Step 6

• To slice the dough without deforming it, place a thread under the roll, cross the thread on top, and pull the ends in opposite directions. Divide the rolled dough into pieces about 4 cm each.

Step 7

• Place the cut rolls in a buttered baking dish (or a baking dish lined with parchment) leaving space between them to allow for rising. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.

Step 8

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 9

• Once the rolls have risen, prepare the egg wash by whisking together the egg yolk and milk. Brush this mixture over the top of the rolls.

Step 10

• Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.

Step 11

• While the rolls are baking, make the frosting. Simply whisk together cream cheese, double cream, icing sugar, and vanilla until the mass thickens (a few minutes).

Step 12

• Once the pistachio rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes, then brush them with the prepared frosting. Sprinkle toasted crushed pistachios over the top for a delightful garnish.
