Firstly should just clarify what these are. It's a sweet scroll with custard, sultanas and diced apple as filling.
Made these as a treat for morning tea today. Very simple and delicious, could probably cut back on the sugar a little in either the dough or the custard.
Suggestion - when cooling the custard, spread on a flat tray about the size of the dough (30x30). Once the custard has cooled in the fridge, it's very hard to re-spread. So by spreading it the right size before cooling, you can just lift it off the tray and place on top of the dough. Perfect! Will do that next time.
Has anyone tried other recipes from this book?

Delicious. I'm glad you clarified what this was. I don't have this book but it sounds rather good.

Sounds good CB79. With the custard, the other trick is to line the tray with plastic (or silicon) to help get the custard slab out.

Thank you both for the hints. I have trouble spreading my cold custard when I make almond and custard scrolls. I'll do as you have suggested next time.

thought i would have a go at this, and yes the custard is not a thick layer and sets when it has cools. when you lift it out of the tray and whack it over the dough, the baking paper just peels off nicely. good tip :D

Has anyone tried freezing these? Is there any reason why freezing would not be suggested? I would like to make them this afternoon but I don't want to give the kids the same thing each day so would like to be able to freeze some. My last lot of scrolls the kids really liked (just the brioche dough with diced apple, sultanas and cinammon sugar) but they didn't eat them 'quick' enough and they started growing... It was not nice to have to bin them.

Freeze one and give it a try. You have nothing to lose. You could put it in one day and take it out of the freezer the next. If it works then freeze the rest. I think it should be ok.
