Aside from the main ingredients, you will also need a rolling pin, parchment paper, and a baking tray.
To make the dough, start by mixing the flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, milk, yogurt, and yeast. Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise for about an hour in a warm place.
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling by mixing together the chopped pistachios, sugar, and rosewater in a bowl. Set aside.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangular shape. Spread the filling evenly on top of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Gently roll up the dough, starting from the long side, making sure to seal the edges tightly. Cut the rolled dough into 1-inch slices and place them on a lined baking tray, leaving some space between each roll.
Bake the rolls in a preheated oven at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Once done, remove them from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
These delicious Turkish delight rolls are best served warm and can be enjoyed as a sweet snack or dessert. They also make for a beautiful and unique addition to any brunch or tea party spread. Try out this recipe and impress your family and friends with your baking skills!
