"Are the Slovak traditional baked good. They are sort of like American cookies in that everyone makes them, and in that the recipe varies from grandma to grandma. Ducats on the other hand were the ubiquitous coins of the Europe from the Middle Ages. If this were an American dish, they would probably be called the silver dollar cakes… from the slovakcookingdotcom site"

Step 1

Mix all the dough ingredients together until you get a smooth mixture.

Step 2

Cover and let rise for few hours. You will end up with a smooth dough.

Step 3

Transfer the dough onto a board dusted with flour and form into a loaf. Then cut into a number of slices.

Step 4

Take each slice between your palms and roll until you get a smooth cylinder.

Step 5

Transfer the rolls onto a greased baking pan.

Step 6

Brush oil onto the outside side that will be touching another roll to prevent them from sticking. I also tried cutting out few buns with a circular cutter.

Step 7

Next take a greased spatula and use it to make perpendicular cuts so that you end up with a small square buns. Let rise for about 30 minutes.

Step 8

In the meantime, preheat the oven to 375F. Bake for about 20 minutes.

FOR THE PUDDING

Step 9

While the dough is baking, prepare the cream. I think you could use the instant or the cooked kind on you just use more milk to make a thinner cream. I didn’t measure the amounts but the important point is to use much less pudding mix than when making pudding so that you end up with thin cream instead of a thick pudding.
