- 280g strong flour
- 55g sugar
- 4g instant yeast
- 150ml milk, warmed
- 1 egg yolk (21g)
- 20g honey
- 55g butter
- 1g salt
- 200 ml whipping cream
- 25g icing sugar
- 50g AERO® Chocolate Mix-in
-
1Prepare the Dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the strong white flour, sugar, and dried yeast. Mix briefly to combine.
-
2Add the warmed milk, honey, and egg yolk to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed for 5 minutes until well combined.
-
3Gradually add the softened butter, a little at a time, mixing continuously. Finish by adding the salt and mix for an additional 10 minutes until a soft, elastic dough forms.
-
4Cover the bowl with cling film and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
5Once risen, divide the dough into equal portions (approximately 80g each). Shape each portion into a bun and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
6Cover the buns loosely with cling film and allow them to rise again for 1 hour.
-
7Bake: Preheat the oven to 170°C (338°F). Bake the buns for 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
8Prepare the Chocolate Cream: Once the buns are cool, melt three-quarters of the AERO® Chocolate mix-in. In a separate bowl, whisk the whipping cream and icing sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold in half of the melted AERO® Chocolate mix-in until fully incorporated.
-
9Assemble the Cream Buns: Cut each bun in half horizontally. Pipe the chocolate cream generously into the centre of each bun.
-
10Dip the cut edge of each bun into the remaining melted AERO® Chocolate mix-in and sprinkle with the remaining Aero mix-in for a delightful finish.
