4 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
7/8 tablespoon yeast
5/8 tablespoon ground cinnamon
5 1/16 tablespoons water
6 3/4 tablespoons milk
2/3 tablespoon vanilla
3 eggs
5 1/4 tablespoons butter at room temperature
5 7/8 tablespoons lard at room temperature
13/16 teaspoon salt
1 egg beaten
3 1/2 tablespoons butter at room temperature
6 2/3 tablespoons confectioners sugar
6 3/8 tablespoons flour
yellow food coloring

1
Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius.
2
Mix the flour, sugar, yeast, and cinnamon together. Make 2 wells in the mixture, placing the eggs, vanilla, milk, and half the water into one and the butter and lard into the other.
3
Mix each side separately and then incorporate. Knead for approximately 45 minutes until elastic and smooth.
4
Lightly oil the dough with a little bit of lard melted on the fingers and place the dough into a greased baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and a dry cloth and place in a warm place until it doubles in volume, approximately 60 minutes.
5
Mix the butter, sugar, and flour together and add a few drops of food coloring. Set aside.
6
Tap the dough to deflate it and divide into portions. Form into balls and place onto a silicone or parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
7
Brush the balls of dough with the egg. Form the topping into small flat discs and place on the dough.
8
Cover with plastic and a dry cloth and allow to double in volume once more.
9
Brush the topping with egg and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes until slightly golden and firm to the touch.
