Ingredients
- 1 1 lb all-purpose flour sifted
- 1/2 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1 pinch salt
- 1 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 4 egg yolks (reserve the whites)
- 7 7 oz milk scalded
- 1 1/2 1 1/2 tbsp fresh yeast
- 3 3 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 1 tsp cocoa powder
- 16 16 oz fresh cream
Instructions
- Add the yeast to 1/4 cup of lukewarm water.
- Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl.
- Add the yeast, egg yolks, milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt and stir until you get a sticky smooth dough, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer to a lightly floured large plastic container with lid, and let it rise for 4 hours.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- With lightly oiled hands, form the dough into little ping-pong-sized balls and place on the baking sheet. Cover gently with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for an additional 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 355°F.
- When doubled in size, brush the buns very gently with the egg whites, covering the entire surface of the buns.
- Bake for 20 to 22 minutes. Remove and let cool on a wire rack.
- Measure the cream and powdered sugar into a large bowl and whip with a whisk for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes whipped cream.
- Slice each bun across the top, fill with fresh whipped cream, and top with additional powdered sugar and the cocoa powder.
