Equipment
- Convection oven
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Bowls
- Whisk and spatula
Ingredients
- 1 cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 5 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces 75 grams
- ⅔ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ⅔ cup Milk
For Brushing on Top
- ¼ cup Sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C for 15 minutes. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a large combine both the flours, baking powder, salt and sugar. Whisk all the dry ingredients together.
- To this dry flour mix add cold butter cubes and massage it well, the flour mix should have a coarse texture, like almond meal.
- Add the chocolate chips to this, now slowly add milk in 2 parts and combine to form a soft, gooey dough. I used the spatula first, then used my hands to bring the dough together.
- Turn the dough to a flat surface, roll it into a log and cut them into equal pieces. I used my measuring scale and divided into 10 equal portions, weighing 72-75 grams approximately.
- Grease a baking tray generously with butter, arrange the dough balls. Brush them generously with butter and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top.
- Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove and brush the tops with the remaining butter. Let it cool down on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Enjoy them warm.
