Very tender, airy, homemade yeast dough buns. They can be made with jam, poppy seeds, or, like me, with chocolate paste. These buns have a very interesting molding that decorates them incredibly.
Mix all the ingredients in a deep bowl and knead the dough. I usually do this in a stand mixer with a hook attachment, you can also knead in a bread machine. I add butter last. Cover with cling film, a towel, and leave in a warm place for about an hour or a little longer (depending on the temperature in the room).
Punch down the finished dough a little and divide into 18 equal parts (I got 52 g each). Roll each part in a circular motion with the palm of your hand on the table into a ball.
Take three balls and roll each into an oval.
Spread chocolate paste on one cake, cover with a second cake. Apply a layer of pasta again and cover with a third tortilla.
Make a slit in the middle with a sharp knife.
Turn one end of the cake through the slit in the dough in one direction, and the other end in the other.
Put the buns on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, cover with cling film and let stand for another 20 minutes.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes. Before sending it to the oven, I did not grease the buns with anything.
