wiseheartOur school's going to celebrate its 50th anniversary next year, which isn't much compared with centuries-old, venerable institutions, but still... In any case, we're planning to do some vintage stuff, like an exposition of old exercise books, photos and stuff.
When we were discussing it, someone suggested a "retro buffet", meaning the offer of foodstuffs from our forgotten youth on the project week. Among other fondly remembered things, the little rolls of yeast dough called "Molnárka" (= little miller... and don't ask me where the name comes from, the things aren't even white) were mentioned. So, being the adventurous soul that I am, I offered to bake them, should I find a doable recipe.
I searched the shadowy depths of the Internet and came up with dozens of recipes, each only differing in tiny little details. I chose the one that seemed the easiest to make and these guys were the result:
They aren't only pretty but also feather light and almost indecently tasty. I'm well pleased with the results.
