# What You Need:

→ Dough

01 - 1 cup lukewarm whole milk
02 - 1/3 cup lukewarm water
03 - 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
04 - 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
05 - 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
06 - 1 teaspoon fine sea salt

→ Filling

07 - 10 ounces frozen raspberries
08 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
09 - 1 teaspoon cornstarch
10 - 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest
11 - 1/3 cup chocolate hazelnut spread

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking pan with parchment paper.
02 - Combine lukewarm milk, lukewarm water, instant yeast, and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
03 - Add all-purpose flour and sea salt to the bowl. Mix until a soft dough forms, then knead on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
04 - Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
05 - In a medium bowl, combine frozen raspberries, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, and fresh orange zest. Mix gently to coat berries evenly.
06 - Roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Evenly spread the chocolate hazelnut spread over the surface. Distribute the raspberry mixture on top.
07 - Roll each long side of the rectangle toward the center, meeting in the middle. Slice into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife. Pinch the bottom of each piece to create a heart shape and arrange them, cut side up, in the prepared pan.
08 - Cover the rolls loosely and let them rise for 30 minutes, or until noticeably puffy.
09 - Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
10 - Allow rolls to cool slightly in the pan before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Use fresh zest from a firm orange for maximum flavor in the filling.
