Golfeado's Recipe

Golfeados are Venezuelan sweet rolls somewhat similar to cinnamon rolls but they have two key ingredients that are both simple and delicious papelón and white cheese (white salty cheese called: queso llanero).... Both are rolled up inside and anise-flavored sweet roll dough, drizzled with syrup made from the papelon and sprinkled with more cheese... and then baked.... these two flavors combined are just out of the moon... By the way, the best way to eat "Golfeados" are when they are hot... just from the oven...


This is the recipe:


Ingredients:
Dough
250 grams sugar
1 liter of water
12 grams of salt
200 grams of unsalted margarine
25 grams powder milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
25 grams anise seeds
1 kg all purpose flour
1 tablespoon instant yeast


Filling:
500 grams grated papelon
40 grams anise seeds
600 grams grated white cheese


Glaze:
250 grams papelon
1/2 cup of water


Directions
In a small bowl dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside. In a large bowl, mix all the other ingredients and mix until smooth. Add yeast mixture. Mix in until dough is easy to handle. Place in well greased bowl, cover and let rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
When doubled in size, punch down dough. Roll out on a floured surface into a rectangle. Mix all the fillings ingredients and sprinkle over the dough. 
Role up dough and pinch edge together to seal. 
Cut into 12 to 15 slices and place the golfeados in a well greased pan. 
Bake for about 30 minutes or until nicely browned.
