Extra ingredients - Ngā kai anō

¼ C mīere kōura (golden syrup)
⅓ C kirīmi (cream, room temperature or slightly warm)

The Cream Cheese Frosting - Te Pani Reka Kirīmi Tīhi

200 g kirīmi tīhi (cream cheese, room temperature)
2 tbsp puehu huka (icing sugar)
1 tsp wanira (vanilla)
⅔ C kirīmi (cream)
12 pihikete tinitia (gingerbread biscuits, I used a brand called Oki Doki)

Instructions

The Spiced Dough - Te Pokenga Raukikini

Add mīere kōura (golden syrup), miraka (milk) and wai wera (hot water) in to a large bowl. Stir until the mīere kōura (golden syrup) has dissolved.
Sprinkle over the īhi horo (instant yeast), stir again and leave for 5 minutes to activate.
Once the īhi (yeast) has risen to the top, add the puehu parāoa (flour), raukikini whakauruuru (mixed spice), hinamona (cinnamon), tinitia (ginger), tote (salt), hēki (egg) and pata kūteretere (softened butter). Stir it all together with a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
Add the dough to a lightly floured tēpu (table).
Knead the dough by hand for 10 - 12 minutes or 8 - 10 minutes in a stand mixer, using a dough hook. Try not to add extra flour as you go, this helps the baked buns stay light and fluffy.
Once the dough is smooth and stretchy, add it to a bowl.
Cover it with a bowl cover or tea towel and rise for 1 hour, 30 minutes.

The Spiced Butter - Te Pata Raukikini

As the dough rises, prepare the pata raukikini (spiced butter).
Add the pata kūteretere (softened butter), huka hāura (brown sugar), wanira (vanilla), raukikini whakauruuru (mixed spice), hinamona (cinnamon) and tinitia (ginger) in to a medium bowl. Whisk with a fork until smooth, around 1 minute.
Once the dough has risen, add it to a lightly floured tēpu (table). Roll out the dough to a 40 cm x 28 cm rectangle.
Spread the pata raukikini (spiced butter) evenly on top. Roll up the dough with the long part in front of you. Dust off any excess flour as you roll up the log.

Extra ingredients - Ngā kai anō

Grease a 30 x 20 cm tray with pata (butter). Note: Try and use this size tray for the most even bake and well risen scrolls.
Press in the pepa tunu (baking paper) with a long overhang.
Spread the mīere kōura (golden syrup) on to the pepa tunu (baking paper).
Cut the scroll log in to 12 equal pieces and place the scrolls on top of the mīere kōura (golden syrup), spacing them out evenly.
Cover with a tea towel and rise for 45 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 165 °C.
After 45 minutes, pour ⅓ cup of kirīmi (cream) in to the gaps of the scrolls and around the edge, this helps makes the most amazing sauce.
Add them to the oven and bake them for 23-25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and make the frosting as they cool for 10-15 minutes.

The Cream Cheese Frosting - Te Pani Reka Kirīmi Tīhi

Add the kirīmi tīhi (cream cheese), puehu huka (icing sugar) and wanira (vanilla) in to a medium bowl. Mash it with a for until smooth.
Add the kirīmi (cream) in two parts, whipping after each addition with a whisk. Once it is smooth, it is ready.

Time to eat - Te wā kai!

Smear the pani reka (frosting) on to all of the scrolls if you want to and serve them in the tray.
You can also put the frosting it in a bowl and allow people to add their own.
If you want to be a little extra, smear dollops on to each scrolls and place a mini gingerbread man on to each one!
