For a shiny, golden finish, brush the tops of the rolls with a mixture of egg yolk and milk before baking, as suggested in the recipe.
Ingredients:
For the Dough:
- 1.5 cups warm milk
- 1 packet dry yeast
- 90 g melted and cooled butter
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 4-5 cups flour (500-600 g)
For the Topping and Filling:
- Spreadable chocolate
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon milk
Instructions:
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, yeast, melted butter, sugar, salt, and egg. Mix well. Gradually add the flour and knead the dough until it is soft and no longer sticky. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise for about 45 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
- Shape the Rolls: Once the dough has risen, divide it into small portions. Roll each portion into a rectangular shape. Spread a layer of chocolate over the dough, leaving about 1 cm of space along the edges. Fold both sides toward the center and roll the dough into a log.
- Second Rise: Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each roll. Cover and let them rise for an additional 20 minutes.
- Prepare for Baking: Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F). Mix the egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of milk and brush the tops of the rolls.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
