    • 1 3/4 cups of milk
    • 3 ounces of chocolate
    • 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon of light cream

    • 1 ounce of butter
    • 0.5 ounces of cocoa
    Preparation Steps

    Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process of creating this delectable dessert:

    Layering the Biscuits
    • Begin by placing a layer of sugar-free biscuits in a 16x16cm square glass baking dish. This will serve as the base of your dessert. Set the dish aside while you prepare the creamy filling.
    Making the Creamy Filling
    • In a saucepan, combine the egg yolks and stevia sweetener (or sugar). Whisk until smooth, then add the corn starch and milk. Stir continuously over medium heat until the mixture begins to bubble and thicken, which should take about 1-2 minutes. Next, add the butter to the mixture, allowing it to melt completely. Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat.
      Adding the Cocoa Layer
      • Pour half of the creamy filling over the layer of biscuits in the baking dish, ensuring that it covers them evenly. Then, add another layer of biscuits on top. To the remaining creamy filling, add the cocoa powder and mix well. Pour this cocoa mixture over the second layer of biscuits, spreading it evenly across the dish.
      Garnishing with Chocolate Cream
      • In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate until melted. Stir in the light cream until smooth, creating a rich chocolate cream. Pour this chocolate cream over the cocoa layer in the baking dish, spreading it evenly to cover the surface of the dessert.
      Chilling the Dessert
      • Place the prepared dessert in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together, resulting in a perfectly indulgent treat.
      Serving Suggestions
      • Once chilled, remove the dessert from the refrigerator and serve it to your eager guests. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, this dessert is sure to impress with its decadent layers and rich flavors.

        2. Prepare the Syrup:
          • While the dessert is baking, prepare the syrup. In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until slightly thickened. If using, add the rosewater or orange blossom water at the end of cooking. Allow the syrup to cool.

        Step 5: Finish the Dessert

          • As soon as the dessert comes out of the oven, pour the cooled syrup evenly over the hot rolls.
        2. Cool and Serve:
          • Allow the dessert to cool in the baking dish for at least 30 minutes before serving. The syrup will soak into the rolls, making them sweet and moist

            Tips for Perfect Sultan Sarma

            • Even Rolling: Make sure to roll the dough evenly to ensure consistent cooking and a uniform texture.

        • After the initial rise, whether immediate or overnight, punch down the dough to release any trapped air.
      2. Stretch and Fold:
        • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently stretch and fold it several times to build strength. This step is crucial, especially if you used a food processor to mix the dough.

      3. Shape the Dough

      1. Shape and Transfer:
        • Shape the dough into a loaf and place it into a greased 25 cm (10 inches) baking pan.
        • Cover it with a cloth and let it rise again for about 30-60 minutes until it has visibly puffed up.

      4. Bake the Bread

      1. Cold Oven Method:
        • Place the loaf into a cold oven—do not preheat.
        • Set the oven to 200°C (390°F) with top/bottom heat.
        • Bake the bread for 50-55 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

      5. Cool and Serve

      1. Cooling:
        • Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
      2. Serve:
        • Slice and enjoy the fresh, soft yogurt bread as a side with butter, jam, or your favorite toppings.

      Notes

      • Yeast: For overnight fermentation, only use 2g (0.07 oz) of dry yeast and allow the dough to rise for 10-12 hours.
      • Flour Variations: Different flours absorb liquids differently, so adjust the water and yogurt as needed. Add liquid gradually to achieve the right dough consistency.
      • Rising Time: Rising times may vary based on room temperature and yeast activity. Allow the dough to double in size during the rising periods.
      • Stretching and Folding: This technique helps develop gluten in the dough, improving the bread’s structure and texture.
        This 3-Minute Yogurt Bread is a quick and easy way to enjoy homemade bread without the need for kneading or shaping. Whether you opt for the same-day method or the slow overnight fermentation, you’ll end up with a delicious, soft loaf that’s perfect for an
