Making a Girl Muffin Cake

For a birthday party, one must of course have a cake, but why go out and buy an expensive cake, which is  probably filled with just sugar and color when you can easily do it and with just a small content of sugar.

I found this recipe for a cake made from buns at a danish website. We have used it once or twice, and the buns are super good.

It takes approx. two hours make because the buns will rise 2 times of 20 min. and bake for 20 minutes.

For the ingredients you need:

• 225 g butter
• 4 ½ cups of milk
• 1 ½ tbsp
• 1 ½ tsp salt
• 75 g yeast
• 650 g plain flour

In addition, you must use to swabbing:

a little cream or eggs

…and for icing and decoration

Glaze and some Harlequin sprinkle, flags, candles and / or candy.

Procedures for the buns are:

1. Melt butter and pour into a mixing bowl.
2. Add milk, sugar and salt.
3. Stir the yeast into it.
4. Turn the flour with a large spoon (hold approx. 50 g flour back, used to roll).
5. When the dough is nice and smooth, put it to rise for approx. 20 min. And then beaten down again. Now the dough easy to work with.
6. Divide the dough into 3 balls.
7. Make 2 rolls of two of them and cut each into 12 pieces.
8. These 24 pieces rolled into buns made ​​with a little distance apart on a greased baking sheet.
9. The last portion of dough should be shaped into the head and hair.
10. The cake is set to rise for another 20 min.
11. Brush with egg and bake in center of oven.
12. Decorate with frosting.
