## Instructions

6. Spread half of the filling onto the rolled-out dough.
7. Halve the dough and roll it up tightly from the long side.
8. Repeat the process with the second half of the dough and filling.

12. Stir together milk and syrup, then brush the Franzbrötchen with the mixture.

- Ensure the butter for the dough is truly soft (room temperature).
- If the filling is too liquid, cool it again.
