CUSTARD CREAM BUNS 🤤 I got my hands on the viral @Marks and Spencer Custard Cream Spread and I have created something VERY special with it 🤌🏼 I’m absolutely LOVING getting more creative with my recipes at the minute. I definitely feel like I’m getting braver with what I make and these might just be one of my favourites yet! Ingredients For the flour paste 30g bread flour 180ml water For the dough 500g bread flour 65g caster sugar 7g fast-action yeast ¾ tsp salt 80ml warm milk 80ml double cream 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla paste or vanilla essence 100g unsalted soft butter For the filling 120g salted butter, softened 200g M&S Custard Cream Spread 25g light brown sugar For the frosting 140g soft cheese 60g unsalted butter, softened 60g icing sugar 100g M&S Custard Cream Spread 12 Custard Cream biscuits, to finish Method 1️⃣ Add the flour and water for the flour paste to a small pan and cook over a medium heat, stirring until it becomes a thick paste. Leave to cool. 2️⃣ In a large bowl, mix together the bread flour, sugar and yeast. Add the warm milk, double cream, egg, vanilla and cooled flour paste then mix until a dough forms. 3️⃣ Knead for a few minutes, then add the salt and softened butter a little at a time until combined and the dough is soft. Cover and leave to rise for around 1 hour, or until lovely and puffy. 4️⃣ Mix together the softened salted butter, Custard Cream Spread and light brown sugar until you have a spreadable filling. 5️⃣ Roll the dough into a rectangle (around 45cm in length), spread the filling evenly over the top, then roll it up tightly and cut into 12 buns. 6️⃣ Place the buns into a lined baking dish, cover and leave to rise for another hour until nice and puffy. 7️⃣ Drizzle over some cream (optional) and bake at 160°C fan for 30–35 minutes until risen and golden. 8️⃣ Mix together the soft cheese, butter, icing sugar and Custard Cream Spread until smooth, then spread over the buns while they’re still slightly warm. 9️⃣ Finish each bun with a whole Custard Cream biscuit. And there you have it… CUSTARD CREAM BUNS 🤤 You saw them here first! #mands #marksandspencerfood #custardcream #custardcreamspread #custardcreambuns
