In a saucepan or in the microwave, warm up the milk.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>2. Pour the milk into a small bowl, add the dry yeast, and let rise for 5 minutes.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>3. In the bowl of a mixer equipped with a kneading hook, mix the flour, sugar, and salt.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>4. Make a well in the centre and add the milk and yeast mixture, as well as an egg. Knead at me-dium speed for 5 to 7 minutes until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>5. Add the cubes of butter one by one and knead the mixture for 5 additional minutes.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>6. Cover the dough with a cloth and let rise for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>7. Meanwhile, mix the ingredients for the filling until a smooth and even dough is obtained.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>8. Once the dough has doubled in size, roll it out into a 3-mm-thick rectangle using a rolling pin.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>9. Spread the filling evenly over the dough. Fold in 3 by bringing the right side toward the centre, then folding the left side over it. Gently flatten using the rolling pin.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>10. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 4-cm-wide strips.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>11. Twist the dough strip and wind it around itself, forming a knot. Repeat for each strip of dough.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>12. Arrange the braided rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>13. Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F (180\u00b0C). Beat the re-maining egg and brush the rolls with it.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<br \/>\n<\/span>14 Bake for 15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.
