You’ll need to wait some time for this sweet yeast dough to rise, but this dumpling cake has a pretty presentation with minimal effort. A delicious counter cake or addition to a sweet table.
1 ounce yeast
1 cup warm water
4 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
6 egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces margarine (use soy-free if needed)
1 and 1/2 pounds ground walnuts
1 and 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
1 cup oil
Disolve yeast in water.
Knead all ingredients to form soft dough. Set aside to rise for 45 minutes.
Form into one-inch balls.
Combine ingredients for filling.
Dip balls into oil, then coat with nut mixture.
Layer balls in a 10-inch tube pan. Set aside for 30 minutes to rise.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
