Hot Chocolate Cream Rolls! Cream rolls are a classic Afghan dessert/brunch item, a fluffy twisted pastry shell filled with sweet cream cardamom and topped with crushed pistachios and powdered sugar.
I love to take a classic dish and meld it with a fusion twist. My pumpkin spiced cream rolls were so addicting I had to make a flavor just for winter, and what better way to enjoy the season than with hot chocolate !
These have that same light and airy texture and cream as a traditional cream roll, but with a punch of the sweet chocolate flavors of a classic hot chocolate. Topped with powdered sugar & chocolate shavings
* This dish requires cannoli tubes. You can find them on my Amazon storefront https://www.amazon.com/shop/imanistan
