Prepare the dumpling dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sifted flour and 1 tsp of ground cinnamon. In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg, then whisk in the melted butter and milk until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 2
Prepare the sweet sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine the water, granulated sugar, and the remaining 15g of butter. Place over medium heat and stir until the sugar and butter have completely dissolved. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 3
Form and cook the dumplings: Once the sauce is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Using two teaspoons, carefully drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering sauce. Aim for roughly tablespoon-sized portions. Ensure the dumplings are not overcrowded; cook in batches if necessary.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 4
Steam and finish: Immediately cover the saucepan tightly with a lid. Let the dumplings steam gently in the sauce for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed up and cooked through. Avoid lifting the lid during this time to ensure they steam properly. The dumplings should be tender and have absorbed some of the sweet sauce.
โฑ๏ธ 20 minutes - 5
Serve: Carefully ladle the souskluitjies and the sweet sauce into individual serving bowls. Sprinkle generously with the remaining 1 tsp of ground cinnamon. Serve warm as a comforting dessert.
