RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Sweet Bread Dough

 

Ingredients:

1kg Hard Flour
30g Yeast
10g S-500 (Bread Improver)
200g Granulated Sugar
2 pcs Egg Yolk (large)
100ml Fresh Milk
250ml Ice Water
200g Butter
20g Salt
  Embassy Equatorial Blend Dark Chocolate Couverture 56%

 

2. SWEET BREAD DOUGH

45g Brown Sugar (can substitute with granulated sugar)
3g Ground Cinnamon
25g Unsalted Butter

 

Method:

Step 1: Make the Dough

  1. In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine flour, yeast, S-500, and granulated sugar.
  2. Add the eggs, egg yolks, fresh milk, and ice water. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Add the softened butter and salt. Knead for 15-20 minutes until the dough is smooth and stretchy. It should pass the "windowpane test" (stretch a small piece until you can see light through it without tearing).
  4. Lightly grease a bowl. Place the dough in it, turn to coat, then cover and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it's doubled in size.

      Step 2: Prepare the Filling

       While the dough rises, mix brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl.

     Step 3: Assemble the Rolls

  1. Once the dough has doubled, gently punch it down.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Spread the 25 gr of softened unsalted butter evenly over the dough, leaving a small edge on one long side.
  4. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture all over the buttered dough.
  5. Now, sprinkle the chopped Embassy Equatorial 56% chocolate evenly over the cinnamon sugar.
  6. Starting from the long edge opposite the border, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it.
    Step 4: Cut and Rise Again
  1. Using a sharp knife or dental floss, cut the log into 1 to 1.5-inch thick slices.
  2. Place the cut rolls onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between them.
  3. Cover the rolls loosely and let them rise again for 45-60 minutes in a warm place, until they look puffy and nearly doubled.

    Step 5: Bake and Enjoy!

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until they're golden brown.
  3. Let them cool slightly before devouring!
