Homemade Caramel Pinwheels: A Delightful Dessert Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter (for the dough)
- a pinch of salt
- 750ml water
- 400g sieved plain flour
- 8 large eggs
- Caramel pudding (store-bought or homemade)
- 240g sugar semolina
- 300g sieved powdered sugar
- 250ml hot whipped cream
Preparation:
- Dough Preparation: In a large pot, bring water, butter, and a pinch of salt to a boil. Once the butter melts, reduce the heat and gradually add the flour, stirring continuously until a smooth dough forms. Allow the dough to cool, then gradually beat in the eggs until well combined.
- Shaping: Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe pinwheel shapes onto a baking sheet. Bake at 200°C (400°F) for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Filling: Once cooled, fill the pinwheels with caramel pudding and top with a dollop of whipped cream.
- Caramel Glaze: In a saucepan, caramelize the sugar semolina over medium heat. Carefully add the hot whipped cream, stirring until smooth. Mix in the powdered sugar until the glaze is glossy and pourable.
- Decoration: Drizzle the caramel glaze over the filled pinwheels and serve immediately for a decadent treat.
