If I want to freeze the dough, do I do it after the first or second rise?
We recommend freezing the dough after the first rise. Punch it down, wrap it well, and freeze. When ready to use, thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then let the dough come to room temperature and rise before shaping, filling, and baking. Keep in mind that the rise may take a little longer after freezing. Enjoy!
Thank you so much!! Will do
Why do you need eggs in the filling mixture
It's a great question! The eggs help bind the filling together and keep it soft and rich when it bakes.
Absolutely delicious!
