Ingredients:
- For the Dough:
- 140 ml of warm milk
- 7 g of dry yeast
- 1 egg
- 80 g of sugar
- 50 g of butter
- Approximately 300-350 g of all-purpose flour
- For the Cheese Filling:
- 250 g of semi-fat quark
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- A few drops of vanilla extract
- Blended until smooth
- For the Blueberry Filling:
- Blueberries, cooked over low heat with sugar until they release their juices
- A mixture of potato starch with cold water added to thicken
- For the Icing:
- Powdered sugar mixed with a small amount of milk to achieve a thick consistency
Instructions:
- Start by dissolving the yeast in warm milk with a tablespoon each of sugar and flour. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to activate.
- Melt the butter and let it cool.
- To the yeast mixture, add the egg, the remaining sugar, and gradually incorporate the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Add the cooled butter and knead well, adding more flour if the dough is sticky.
- Let the dough rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
- Once risen, knead the dough again and roll it out into a large rectangle. Spread the cheese mixture over the dough, then add the blueberry filling. Fold the edges towards the center and seal.
- Cut into pieces and form into rolls. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the tops with an egg wash and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 25 minutes.
- Once cooled, drizzle with the prepared icing.
