Instructions
Then mix like this
- Line 2 x spring form tin base with baking paper. Lightly grease the sides of the tins in preparation for baking.
- Place water and yeast into bowl. Cook at 2 minutes / 37C / Speed 2.
- Add butter, flour, salt, honey, sugar, egg and cocoa powder. Speed 7 / 5 seconds. Then program Closed Lid / 6 minutes / Kneading Speed.
- Remove dough carefully from bowl and place onto a floured bench. It will be a slightly sticky dough but workable.
- Knead choc chips into the dough until distributed.
- Place dough in to an oiled bowl and place somewhere warm for one hour or until doubled in size.
- Remove dough from bowl and divide into 18 even balls. Place buns close together into spring form tins. Place in a warm spot and allow them to double in size.
- Preheat oven to 200C.
- Add cross ingredients into clean mixer bowl. Speed 4 until well combined. Add a drizzle of extra water if needed to thin it slightly. Be sure not to thin it too much, you need a thick paste.
- Carefully place the batter into a piping bag with a medium tip (or zip lock bag with the corner snipped). Pipe a cross onto each of the buns.
- Place tray into the oven and bake for 20-35 minutes depending on the size of your buns. You may need to cook a little longer.
- Add the glaze ingredients into the bowl. 4 minutes / 100C / Speed 2 or until the sugar is dissolved.
- Carefully remove cooked buns from oven. Carefully brush with the glaze. After 5 minutes repeat the glaze. Place into the oven for a few minutes to “set” the glaze. This will give it an extra shine.
- Remove from oven and carefully place onto a wire rack to cool. Best served the day of making.
