You know those days when you just liss for something lekker? This is it.

This Johannesburg weather? Cold one minute, sunny the next — but always perfect for a little something sweet.

Soft, syrupy and totally irresistible!
This recipe from Jameela Sayed ( @cookingandbakingcreations ) in Volume 5 is hands-down my favourite – after trying so many, this one just hits different!

Fluffy on the inside, golden on the outside, and soaked in a delicately rose-scented syrup… what more could you want?
