Materials

• Coffee liquid
• 15g coffee powder
• 170g hot water
• Dough
• 200g high gluten flour
• 10g cocoa powder
• 15g instant coffee powder
• 140g coffee liquid
• 30g sugar
• 3 g dry yeast
• 2 grams of salt
• 25g butter
• 50g chocolate beans

Steps

1. Prepare and weigh the raw materials needed in advance.

2. Put all the ingredients except butter and chocolate beans into the bread machine bucket, knead until it becomes a rough film, then add the butter softened at room temperature, continue kneading until it is thoroughly kneaded, and finally add the chocolate and knead slightly until evenly mixed.

3. Take out the dough, roll it into a ball, cover it with plastic wrap and place it in a warm place indoors for fermentation.

4. When it is about twice as large, dip your finger in flour, and poke a hole in it. If it does not shrink or collapse, it means it is fermented.

5. Press and pat the fermented dough to release air, then divide it into six equal portions.

6. Roll each into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes.

7. Flatten the relaxed dough, knead it into a round shape again and put it into a mold. Then put it into the oven with a bowl of warm water at the bottom of the oven for secondary fermentation.

8. Wait until it doubles in size, about 50 minutes. Then put it in the middle layer of the oven preheated to 185 degrees, and bake at 175 degrees for about 20 minutes. Pay attention to the color in the last few minutes, and cover it with tin foil when you are satisfied with the color.
