Handheld Dessert Bread

Happiness is one of these in each hand.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon yeast
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 2/3 cups bread flour
  • Egg wash
  • Melted chocolate, for coating
  • Dragées for topping
  • Chocolate flakes
  • Banana slices
  • Chocolate cookies
  • Candies
  • Whipped cream

Steps

  1. Make the bread dough: Combine the butter and milk, then melt them together in the microwave, and cool to room temperature.
  2. Add the yeast, sugar and salt to the mixture, the mix in the bread flour.
  3. Put the dough into a zip-top bag and knead it for 30 seconds.
  4. Open the bag partway and heat it in a 200-watt microwave for 30 seconds.
  5. Divide the bread dough into eight even pieces, then cover them with a layer of plastic wrap, and let them rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  6. After 30 minutes, gently slap the dough to remove any excess air.
  7. Make 4 cone-shaped molds out of aluminum foil. Roll out the dough thinly, then wrap a section around each mold to make four pieces of bread. Brush with egg wash, then bake for 20 minutes at 340 degrees.
  8. Let the bread cool before removing it from the molds. Repeat with remaining dough.
  9. When bread has cooled, dip in melted chocolate then dip in the dragées.
