Instructions

  1. Make the dough. In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour, milk, cream, sugar, eggs, yeast, salt. Mix on low to form a smooth dough, about 10 minutes. If dough is too dry or tough, add a little more milk 1 tablespoon at a time. Add the butter and continue kneading until the dough becomes elastic and pulls away from the sided of the bowl, 10 to 15 minutes. It should not be sticky to the touch.
  1. Let the dough rest in a lightly greased bowl at room temperature for about 1 hour. Turn the dough once and put in the fridge to rest for another hour. Turn it again and refrigerate for a minimum of 5 hours.
  1. Add the butterscotch to the dough and mix well. Scoop the dough in heaping teaspoonfuls and roll into balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  1. Heat a waffle machine. Add a ball of dough to each section on the iron. Bake until golden brown, about 3 minutes each. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  1. Prepare the sauce. Bring the cream to a simmer. Pour over the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and let sit until the chocolate begins to melt, about 1 minute. Add the orange zest and juice and stir until smooth. Let cool, then stir in the maple syrup.
  1. Make the roasted pineapple. Melt the butter over high heat in a nonstick pan. Add the sugar and pineapple slice. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
  1. Place a waffle on each of 10 plates, add half a slice of roasted pineapple, and top with white chocolate and orange maple sauce. Sprinkle butterscotch pieces over the tops and serve hot.
