I'm from a Finnish speaking family and we used to have the buns this way. Only my father had coffee to them. <br /><br />I like my buns filled with whipped cream with a hint of vanilla in it, mixed with almond paste, enjoyed with a cup of coffee or served with some hot milk on a plate. NB you don't drink the milk, it is absorbed by the bun.

But with addition of the sweet whipped cream, they turned out to be perfect, although I'll make them 2x smaller next time.Okshttps://twitter.com/oksksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-21972406844516022122013-02-10T19:43:22.419+02:002013-02-10T19:43:22.419+02:00I also used this recipe last year and they came ou...I also used this recipe last year and they came out very well.
