SCHOOL BREAD

INGREDIENTS:

Pastry

• 2 cups of water
• 1 packet or 2 1/4 tsp of dry yeast
• 3 1/2 oz of sugar
• 2 1/2 oz of butter (melted)
• 1 tsp of cardamom
• 2 pounds of flour
• 1 whole egg

Vanilla Custard

• 1 2/3 cups of milk
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
• 4 egg yolks
• 1 tbsp of corn starch

Icing

• 1 cup of powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp of milk or water
• 1/4 tsp of vanilla
• 8 oz of shredded coconut

INSTRUCTIONS:

For The Pastry

• Heat water and butter to 95 degrees.
• Mix flour, sugar, cardamom, yeast, water, and butter together for 5 minutes until dough is stiff.
• Form it like a ball and place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let proof and let proof for 45 minutes, or until dough has double in size.
• Roll the dough out like a sausage and cut into five ounce pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and put them on a non-stick sheet pan and let them proof for 30 minutes.
• Bake for 15 minutes in 375 degree oven. Let cool or ice while warm for a thinner glaze, but let cool before adding custard.

For Vanilla Custard

• In heavy sauce bring milk to a boil. Set aside.
• Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla in a bowl until the mixture doubles by volume. Add the hot milk a few drops at a time to tamper the eggs. Mix well after each addition.
• Place in metal mixing bowl and place over double boiler. Dissolve cornstarch in a little water and add in a thin stream while stirring constantly until it thickens to proper consistency. It must not boil. Cool by placing pan in ice bath.

For Icing

• Mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and water or milk (use small amounts until proper consistency is achieved) to make icing and place in shallow pan.
• Form a hole in the bread using your finger. Dip bread in icing (hole side down) and sprinkle with shredded coconut.
• Using a pastry bag, squeeze vanilla custard inside of the hole and swirl at top for decorations.

Enjoy!
