Soft hot cross buns, spiced with cinnamon and cardamom, and packed with chocolate. Easter this year feels different for obvious reasons. My hot cross buns are a cross (get it?) between a dinner roll and cinnamon roll. They're soft, yet a little dense with a deliciously spiced flavor from cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. You can play with the spices, even adding a little cardamom too.
