The easiest way to enjoy one of SA’s favourite sweet treats, at home!
Time 10 minutes
Serves 6

Ingredients
- 1 pack of The Little Dough Co. White Rolls (contains 6 rolls)
Filling
- 300ml thickened cream
- 250g mascarpone
- 1tsp vanilla bean paste
- 2tbsp icing sugar
To assemble
- ½ cup good-quality strawberry jam
- 6 maraschino cherries
- Icing sugar, for dusting
Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the thickened cream, mascarpone and vanilla bean paste. Using electric beaters, whip until thick, fluffy and holding soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip — mascarpone can firm up quickly! Cover and pop in the fridge to chill until ready to use.
- Using a serrated knife, cut each dinner roll down the centre from the top, stopping just before you slice all the way through (you want to keep a hinge at the base).
- Gently open each roll like a book and spread a generous spoonful of strawberry jam inside, coating both sides.
- Pipe or spoon the mascarpone cream into the centre of each bun. Don’t be shy — the cream should puff out beautifully.
- Place a mascarpone cherry in the centre of each bun, nestled into the cream mixture.
- Dust generously with icing sugar just before serving
