75 g of granulated sugar
2 g of salt
5 gr of baking powder
1 vanilla pod
1 teaspoon of lemon zest
Ingredients for poppy cream:
80 g of poppy seeds

Preparation of the dough for snails with poppy seeds and lemon glaze
Let’s start by preparing the dough for the rolls. Take a bowl and add the flour with baking powder, salt, sugar, vanilla bean and lemon peel and mix the ingredients well. In a separate bowl, mix the soft butter with the beaten eggs. Then add the mixture to the flour mix and mix again. We form a smooth and compact dough, wrap it in transparent film and let it rest in the refrigerator for about an hour.
Preparation of the poppy cream:
In a bowl, whisk the soft butter with the icing sugar until you get a smooth cream. We gradually add the poppy seeds and mix well. Add two tablespoons of cold water and mix everything well.
Preparing the lemon glaze:
In a saucepan, heat the icing sugar and butter until melted. Add the lemon juice and mix. Let it simmer for a few minutes, stirring constantly. We remove from the fire and let it cool down.
Once we have prepared all the ingredients, we can start assembling the snails. Prepare a pastry board and roll out the dough to about half a centimeter thick, forming a rectangle. We spread the poppy filling in the center and wrap it into a roll. With a smooth blade knife we cut a thickness of about one and a half or two centimeters forming precisely the swivels. Once all our swivels are ready, place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
Once cooked, take the snails out of the oven and let them cool. At this point we can decorate our rolls with the lemon glaze. Let’s take a teaspoon and start brushing the glaze on the surface of the snails and… our dessert is ready to be served! Try now to prepare the Snails with poppy seeds and lemon glaze. They will be a big hit!
