For an extra touch of indulgence, add a splash of vanilla extract to the dough. Ensure your yeast is fresh for the best rise. If you don't have walnuts, pecans or almonds make a great substitute. For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the filling and topping. These buns are best served warm, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving.
