The Story of the Rolls
Cream and strawberry rolls have a fascinating history, inspired by the sweet traditions of various cultures. This recipe combines the crunchy texture of puff pastry with a smooth cream, while the strawberries add a fresh and vibrant touch. The rolls are ideal not only for special occasions but also for turning an ordinary day into a sweeter one.

Preparation Method

Step 1: Preparing the Dough
1. If using frozen dough, let it thaw in the refrigerator or on the countertop. However, if time is short, you can use it straight from the freezer, but make sure it is soft enough to be cut.
2. Roll out the dough on a clean surface and cut it into long strips, the thickness of your thumb.

Step 2: Forming the Rolls
3. Take each strip of dough and wrap it around a special roll holder (you can also use a clean skewer).
4. Place the formed rolls in a special baking tray, leaving a little space between them to puff up during baking.

Step 3: Baking
5. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the tray in the oven and bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden and crispy.
6. Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

Step 4: Preparing the Cream
7. In a double-bottomed saucepan, add the eggs and brown sugar, mixing well to combine.
8. Add the cornstarch and bourbon vanilla, stirring carefully to avoid lumps.
9. Thin the mixture with milk and place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the cream thickens (about 10-15 minutes).
10. Once the cream has reached the desired consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat and add the butter, mixing well until completely melted. Cover the saucepan with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.

Step 5: Filling the Rolls
11. When the rolls have cooled, use a piping bag or spoon to fill them with the warm cream.
12. Place a fresh strawberry on top of each roll.

Step 6: Decorating
13. Drizzle chocolate sauce over the rolls and dust with powdered sugar for an attractive appearance.

Serving
These rolls are perfect served warm, alongside a cup of coffee, tea, or a glass of sweet wine. You can pair them with vanilla ice cream for a contrast of temperatures and textures, turning the dessert into a gourmet experience.

Practical Tips
- Take your time: If you have time, it is recommended to let the dough thaw completely for the best results.
- Variations: You can experiment with different fruits for the filling, such as blueberries or raspberries. Also, add a little rum to the cream for a more complex flavor.
- Storage: The filled rolls keep well in the refrigerator for 1-2 days, but they are best enjoyed fresh to maintain the crispy texture of the dough.
