Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooling time: 1 hour
Total time: 1 hour and 30 minutes
Number of servings: 10

Ingredients:

- 250 g popular biscuits
- 1 liter of milk
- 1 pack of butter (approximately 200 g)
- Sugar to taste (between 100-150 g, depending on preferences)
- 1 pack of cocoa
- 250 g coconut
- 100 g nuts (plus a few for decoration)
- 100 g raisins
- 100 g Turkish delight (cut into small cubes)
- 2/3 bananas (or more, depending on preferences)
- 1 pack of pudding powder (vanilla or strawberry)
- Colored paper sheets (for the butterfly wings)
- 200 g sour cream
- 1 pinch of stabilizer for whipped cream

Preparation:

1. Preparing the Biscuit Dough:
Start by placing half of the milk (500 ml) in a pot over medium heat. Add the butter, sugar, and cocoa. Stir constantly until the butter completely melts and the mixture becomes homogeneous. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking.

2. Grinding the Biscuits:
In a food processor, grind the popular biscuits until they become a fine powder. Separately, grind the nuts (keeping a few for decoration). Add the ground nuts to the biscuit powder, along with the raisins and diced Turkish delight. Mix the dry ingredients well.

3. Forming the Dough:
Pour the warm milk mixture over the biscuit mixture. Add the rum and mix everything until you obtain a homogeneous dough. Spread the dough on a baking sheet, forming a thickness of about 1 cm. Refrigerate the roll for at least 1 hour to harden and make it easier to roll.

4. Preparing the Pudding:
Use the remaining milk (500 ml) to prepare the pudding according to the package instructions. Add 250 g of coconut to the pudding, mixing well. Let the pudding cool slightly.

5. Assembling the Roll:
Take the biscuit dough out of the refrigerator. Evenly spread the coconut pudding over the biscuit layer. Slice the bananas thinly and place them on top of the pudding. Carefully roll the dough, forming a roll, taking care not to break it.

6. Preparing the Whipped Cream:
In a bowl, whip the sour cream with the stabilizer until it becomes firm whipped cream. Cover the roll with whipped cream and sprinkle the remaining ground nuts for a decorative look.

7. Decorating and Serving:
Use the colored paper sheets to create the butterfly wings. You can write messages on these wings to make them even more special. Place the roll on a platter and enjoy the admiring looks of your guests.

Practical Tips:

- Choosing Biscuits: Instead of popular biscuits, you can use digestive biscuits or even chocolate biscuits for a more intense flavor.
- Flavor Variants: Instead of rum, you can use vanilla or almond essence to give a distinct note to the roll.
- Decoration: Use seasonal fruits or melted chocolate to decorate the roll. Give it an elegant and modern look.

Nutritional Benefits:
This roll is rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick source of energy. The nuts add healthy proteins and fats, while the bananas contribute potassium and vitamins. Strawberries or vanilla in the pudding provide antioxidants.

Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Can I use other fruits? Absolutely! Apples, peaches, or berries are excellent options.
2. How can I store the roll? The roll keeps well in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, but it is recommended to consume it fresh.
3. What drinks pair well with this roll? A slightly bitter coffee or a fruit tea will perfectly complement the sweetness of the roll.
