"Enjoy Easter this year with these cozonac bow ties, instead of the usual cozonac."

Ingredients

  • sugar - 4/5 cup (170 g) + some for sprinkling
  • milk - 1 cup (250 ml)
  • yeast - 1 packet (1 1/3 tsp (7 g)), dry
  • brandy - 1 tbsp
  • salt - 1 pinch
  • vanilla - 4/5 tsp (4 g)
  • lemon essence - 1 ampule
  • butter - 2 2/3 tbsp (40 g)

How to make

Pour 1 cup warm milk in a bowl, add 1 tsp sugar, the yeast and a little flour, stir and leave in a warm area for it to activate.

Beat the eggs with the sugar and remaining ingredients, excluding the fats. Knead a soft dough and begin to slowly add in the melted fats, knead until they're fully absorbed.

Leave the dough in a warm area to rise, then make the bow ties as follows: divide the dough into identical balls and roll out a small oblong sheet from each one. Fold each in 2, makes 2 cuts in the middle.

Fold the edges toward the middle, flip the middle part back. You can get a better idea of how to do this in the photos I've attached. Leave the bow ties to rise, then smear them with beaten yolk, sprinkle with sugar and bake in a preheated oven until golden.

These tasty, aromatic bow ties are the perfect Easter surprise for kids and adults!
