Instructions

1. Put the flour in a bowl, mix with the sugar and salt and make a well in the middle. Mix the yeast with a pinch of sugar and some of the warm milk. Pour into the well and stir something into the flour with your finger. Add the egg, melted butter and the rest of the milk and work into a yeast dough. Remove from the bowl and knead well for about 10 minutes. Return to the bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour. The dough should have increased in volume significantly during this time.
2. In the meantime, chop the chocolate and then knead into the dough. Now divide it into eight equal parts, shape them round and put them in brioch molds or muffin molds. I don`t need to grease my coated brioch molds, which is certainly advisable with a muffin tin. Cover the molds with a damp cover and let rise again in a warm place for about 45 minutes. They should also have increased their volume significantly.
3. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
4. Whisk the egg with the water and brush the brioches with it. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown in color. Do not leave them in for too long or they will dry out. Remove, remove from the tin and let cool on a wire rack.
