How to make
Set aside 1/2 cup from the whole amount of milk (150 ml).
Put it in a small bowl along with the yeast, 1 tbsp. sugar and flour, enough for a thick mixture. Let it activate.
Pour the flour onto a kitchen counter. Add the rest of the ingredients for the dough along with the yeast. Knead a soft dough. Leave it to rise for half an hour.
Knead again and divide it into two balls. Roll out each ball into a rectangular crust, but it should not be too thin. Spread with butter and sprinkle with the ground walnuts. Roll it up.
Cut it into circles. Arrange them on a tray lined with baking paper, spaced apart.
Bake in a preheated oven at 360°F (180°C). Remove the snails and let them cool completely.
Meanwhile, make the syrup by putting the sugar, water and vanilla in a saucepan. Wait for the sugar to melt and boil for 20 minutes.
Pour the hot syrup over the cooled snails.
Wait a few hours for them to soak well and serve your syrupy snails with yeast.
