Boston Cream Pie Stuffed Hawaiian Rolls
Ingredients
- 24 count pkg King's Hawaiian Rolls
For the Custard
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup milk
- 5 egg yolks
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 Tbsp cornstarch
- 4 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Chocolate Glaze
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, salt, and cornstarch. Whisk in heavy whipping cream, milk, and egg yolks. Heat over medium heat until the mixture gets thick like pudding, about 5 minutes. The cream will cling to the back of the spoon.
- Remove from the heat and pour through a fine mesh strainer to remove any lumps then add in butter, one tablespoon at a time. Stir until the butter is melted and the cream is smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Place a piece of plastic wrap on top of the cream so that it doesn't form a crust, then refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight.
- When ready to fill the rolls, spoon the cream into a large piping bag that has been fitted with a long, thin piping tip.
- Use the large end of a piping tip to cut a hole in one side of each roll, making sure not to pierce any of the other sides. Use a finger or the back of a small spoon to press down the insides of the roll to allow more room for the filling.
- Insert the piping tip into the hole in the roll and squeeze in as much cream filling as you can fit.
- Make the chocolate glaze: Place chocolate chips and heavy cream in a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave on HIGH power in 20-second increments, stirring frequently, until the chocolate glaze is melted and smooth.
- Dip the tops of each filled Hawaiian roll into the chocolate glaze. Allow the glaze to set at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving.
