Method
Make an enriched yeast dough using milk, flour, sugar, cardamom, egg, and butter. Let rise for 1.5–2 hours.
Divide into 12–16 pieces and shape into smooth buns. Let proof for 40–60 minutes.
Brush with egg wash and bake at 220°C (425°F) for 8–12 minutes. Let cool.
Finely grind the almonds and mix with sugar and milk to form a smooth paste.
Cut the tops off the buns, hollow out a bit of the crumb, mix the crumb into the almond paste, and stuff the buns.
Whip the cream with powdered sugar, pipe it over the filling, put the lids back on, and dust with powdered sugar.
