How To Make DELICIOUS Trini CURRANTS ROLLS | Trinidad Sweets | Caribbean

Combine flour, butter or margarine, shortening, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.

Use a food processor, hands, or grate frozen butter/margarine into the flour mixture.

Add cold water gradually until the mixture holds together without kneading.

Wrap the dough in clear cling wrap and refrigerate to chill for flakiness.

In a separate bowl, combine dry currants, brown sugar, cinnamon powder, and melted butter or margarine for the filling.

Take the chilled dough out of the refrigerator and divide it into two equal parts for easier handling.

Roll out each piece of dough to about 10 by 17 inches, ensuring it's not too thin to prevent currants from bursting through.

Spread an equal amount of currant filling onto each rolled-out dough piece.

Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other to form a log, pinching the ends to seal.

Place the rolled dough into a greased baking dish and brush with egg wash or milk.

Bake in the oven at 375°F for about 45 to 48 minutes until golden brown.

Let the currant rolls cool slightly before slicing them diagonally to your desired thickness.
