1
Make the bread dough and wait until the 1st proofing is done.
-
2
The volume will be 1.5-2 times of the original size.
-
3
It takes a little bit longer than the normal bread dough.
-
4
Break the chocolate bars into pieces, and divide into 12 portions.
-
5
When the 1st proofing is finished, divide the dough into 12 portions.
-
6
Lightly punch down the dough, roll them into balls, and let them rest for about 15 minutes.
-
7
Lightly pinch the dough with your fingers to release air, and roll out into circles, about 10 cm in diameter, using a rolling pin (make the edges a little bit thinner).
-
8
Wrap up a lot of chocolate just like making shumai dumplings.
-
9
Close the seams completely.
-
10
Place the seam side down in a cup.
-
11
Let it proof for at least 30 minutes (I used the bread-rising setting of my oven at 35C.
-
12
You can leave it at room temperature during summer for this).
-
13
Since this dough contains a lot of butter, use lower temperature than usual for proofing.
-
14
Let the dough rise until it fills 2/3 of the cup.
-
15
Make cuts with scissors.
-
16
First, make a deep cut across the center at the half-way point.
-
17
Secondly, make a cut to the left.
-
18
Thirdly, make a cut to the right.
-
19
Brush with egg, then put 5 mm butter cube, and 1/2 teaspoon of granulated sugar into the cuts.
-
20
Bake in the preheated oven at 180C for 13-15 minutes.
-
21
When you are warming it up, loosely cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 20 seconds per bread at 500 W. It will be just like freshly baked one.
