Method
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup warm water, yeast, and a pinch of sugar and let rest until fluffy for 5-7 min.
Step 2
İn a large bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl put flour, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, and the foamed yeast. Mix until combined for about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Cover it with a cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 8-10 minutes. After that, knead the dough by stand mixer or hand. Add room temperature butter to the dough and continue to knead for 12-15 minutes. Transfer the dough to a large oiled bowl and cover with a plastic wrap or kitchen cloth and let it rest in a warm place until doubled in size for around 1 1/2- 2 hours.
Step 4
Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide the dough into equal two pieces. Using a rolling pin or your hand, roll out each dough into a small rectangle then add chocolate chips and fold and shape the dough as in the IG Reel. Using a sharp razor blade, cut around the dough horizontally as in the IG Reel. Repeat all these steps with the other piece.
Step 5
Transfer the breads onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rest for 40-50 min at room temp.
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Step 7
In a small bowl, beat the eggs and the oil together. Brush each bread with the egg wash and bake 25-30 min until golden brown.
Step 8
Remove the breads from the oven onto a cooling rack and allow them to cool just a little bit. Serve warm.
