- 2 tbsp butter, softened
- 1 tsp ube extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
- Activate the yeast by combining warm milk, active dry yeast, and a teaspoon of sugar in a small bowl. Allow it to froth for about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and ube extract. Stir in the yeast mixture until combined.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
