Soft Chocolate Chip Milk Bread Recipe 🍞🍫

This light and fluffy milk bread with chocolate chips is a delightful treat—perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert. The honey and chocolate give it a subtle sweetness that pairs beautifully with a cup of coffee or tea.


Ingredients

  • 200ml (⅞ cup) warm milk
  • 7g (1 ½ tsp) dry yeast
  • 20g (4 ¾ tsp) sugar
  • 6g (1 tsp) salt
  • 20g (1 tbsp) honey
  • 400g (3 cups) all-purpose flour
  • 30g (2 tbsp) soft butter
  • 50g (½ cup) chocolate chips

Preparation

1. Activate the Yeast

  • In a large bowl, whisk together warm milk, dry yeast, honey, and sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy, indicating the yeast is activated.

2. Make the Dough

  • Add all-purpose flour and salt to the liquids. Mix until a dough forms.

3. Knead the Dough

  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes to make it smooth and elastic.
  • Add the soft butter, kneading until it is fully incorporated into the dough. Set aside to rise for 30 minutes, covered with a damp cloth or plastic wrap.

4. Incorporate the Chocolate Chips

  • Gently knead the chocolate chips into the dough, distributing them evenly.

5. Fold and Rest

  • Fold the dough (as shown in the video, or fold like an envelope) twice with 15-minute intervals.
  • After folding, let the dough rest for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

6. Shape the Dough

  • Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rectangle, then roll it tightly into a cigar shape.
  • Place the rolls seam-side down into a greased or parchment-lined baking pan.

7. Final Rise

  • Cover the pan and let the dough rise for 1 hour, or until the rolls have doubled in size.

8. Bake the Bread

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • Brush the tops of the rolls with an egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 tablespoon of water or milk) for a golden finish.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

Serve and Enjoy

Let the bread cool slightly before serving. The soft, fluffy texture with bursts of chocolate makes it irresistible! Pair with butter, jam, or enjoy it plain for a perfect treat.


Tips for Perfect Milk Bread

  • Warm milk temperature: Ensure the milk is warm (not hot) to avoid killing the yeast. Aim for about 38°C (100°F).
  • Optional toppings: Sprinkle some sugar or chocolate shavings on top before baking for extra sweetness.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.

This soft chocolate chip milk bread is sure to become a favorite in your household! 🥰
