step by step

Method

  1. Activate the yeast

    • Mix the lukewarm milk, yeast and sugar in a bowl.
    • Let sit until foamy.
    Step 1

  2. Make the dough

    • Add the egg, melted butter and vanilla.
    • Add the flour and salt and knead until soft and elastic.
    • Add the purple and blue gel coloring little by little until deep violet-blue; the color deepens as it rests and bakes.
    Step 2

  3. First rise

    • Cover the dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
    Step 3

  4. Fill and shape

    • Roll the dough into a rectangle.
    • Spread with softened butter and sprinkle evenly with brown sugar and cinnamon.
    • Roll up tightly from the long side and cut into 6–8 buns.
    Step 4

  5. Second rise

    • Place the buns in a greased baking dish, cover and let rise.
    Step 5

  6. Bake

    • Bake at 175 °C until soft and fluffy; do not overbake.
    Step 6

  7. Make the frosting

    • Beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth.
    • Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, salt and enough cream to make it thick but pipeable.
    • Divide into two bowls and color one deep purple and the other dark blue.
    Step 7

  8. Frost and serve

    • Spread the two frostings slightly over the cooled buns.
    Step 8
