Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp active dry yeast
- 1 cup whole milk (warm)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, and yeast. Add warm milk and melted butter; stir until blended.
- Incorporate eggs one at a time while mixing vigorously. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size.
- For the custard, heat heavy cream until steaming. Whisk egg yolks with sugar and vanilla until pale, then gradually combine with warm cream to avoid curdling. Heat until thickened.
- Punch down the risen dough and roll it into small circles. Place chocolate chips in the center, fold into pillows, and let rise again.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
