How to make chocolate soft European breadThor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 1

Step 1

First let's make the dough. Put all the dough ingredients except butter and chocolate beans into the kneading bowl. It should be noted here that the salt and sugar do not come into direct contact with the yeast, and all liquid materials need to be refrigerated. The room temperature in my house was 30 degrees today, and I tied an ice pack to the kneading cylinder. Thor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 2

At room temperature of 30 degrees, my dough took about an hour to ferment until it doubled in size. Dip your fingers into flour and poke a hole into the fermented dough. Just make sure it doesn't shrink back or shrinks back slowly. Thor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 15

Divide into four equal portions, roll into balls and cover with plastic wrap to rest for 20 minutes. Thor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 16

Step 16

Prepare other fillings. I added mochi, but you don’t have to. For how to make mochi, refer to my previous egg yolk puff tutorial. The dosage and method are the same. Add chocolate coins according to your own taste. I like chocolate coins so I put a little more, about 8-10 chocolate coins per bread. Thor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 17

Step 17

Take a piece of loose dough, with the smooth side facing down, and press it into a dough that is thick in the middle and thin around the edges. Pipe a quarter of the chocolate cheese filling and top with chocolate coins. Thor Chocolate Soft European Bread Recipe Illustration 18

I used the oven fermentation function at 35 degrees and put a bowl of warm water to moisturize. It will take about 30 minutes to ferment. Spread Mexican sauce on the surface of the fermented dough and bake on the bottom shelf of the oven for 15 minutes. The time can be adjusted flexibly according to the conditions of your own oven.
