  • After one hour the dough will almost double in size. Punch it back, add remaining ½ cup of flour, knead and make a rectangular dough sheet with the help of a rolling pin. The sheet should be around ½ inch thick.

  • Nicely grease a cake pan with vegan butter and arrange the swirls inside it. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for around 25 minutes or till the swirls turn golden brown.
  • Once done, take out the cake pan and let the rolls reach room temperature.
  • To prepare the icing, add all the ingredients under icing in a bowl and mix until it becomes a smooth paste.
