Sunshine Semlor

• Rolls:
• 5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups almond milk (heated to 82 degrees F (28 degrees C))
• 2/3 cup butter, melted
• 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
• Almond Paste Filling:
• 1/2 cup milk
• 5 ounces almond paste, grated
• Topping:
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, or to taste

1. Mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
2. Combine warm milk and melted butter in a bowl. Add yeast and stir until completely dissolved. Mix in eggs and cardamom. Stir in flour mixture until thoroughly combined. Cover with a clean towel and let rise for 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down gently and divide into 20 pieces; shape into balls. Arrange balls on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Cover with a towel and let rise for about 45 minutes.
4. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
5. Bake until golden brown, about 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool, about 20 minutes.
6. Cut 1/2 inch off the top of each bun to make a 'lid.' Scoop out the core of the bun gently with a fork. Repeat with remaining buns, setting tops aside and placing cores in a large bowl.
7. Pour some milk over the cores to moisten. Mix in almond paste until smooth. Continue adding small amounts of milk until filling resembles a thick pudding. Spoon almond paste filling into the center of the buns.
8. Combine heavy cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
9. Top buns generously with whipped cream and place 'lids' on top. Use a sifter to dust tops with confectioners' sugar.
