CHOCOLATE BRIOCHE BUNS - A SOUTHERNER'S DREAM

Chocolate Brioche is one of my very favorite pastries or brunch item.  It is great for a morning sweet with your coffee or a great dessert anytime.    This recipe is for brioche rolls.  A nice easy way to add some delicious chocolate to your homemade rolls.  The French knew what they were doing when they combined dark chocolate in their breads and pastries.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup milk, warm
• 1/4 cup  sugar
• 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon  instant dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
• 1 egg, lightly beaten, for brushing

TO MAKE:

• In a bowl, combine the milk and sugar.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. With a wooden spoon or with your hands, stir in the milk mixture, egg and butter to the dry ingredients, stirring vigorously until the dough begins to form.
• Place the dough on a floured work surface and knead for about 5 minutes or until the dough is smooth. Form a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let rest in a warm and humid place (see note) for 10 minutes.
• Line a (17 X 12-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface and add the chocolate chips while kneading the dough. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Shape balls by rolling them with your hands on the counter and place on the baking sheet. Let rise for about 45 to 60 minutes in a warm and humid place, or until the balls double in size.
