Extravagant Checkerboard Bread Rolls

I wanted to make cute-looking bread using my leftover custard and anko paste.
This is a delicious dough even without the custard or an paste, so eat them by themselves, or add in your favorite filling.
I changed the photo for the black cocoa version. Please choose whichever method you prefer.

Shut off the bread machine after making the dough. Take the cocoa wetted with about 1 teaspoon water, mix into half of the divided dough, return it to the bread maker, and switch it on!
It will mix up nicely in about 5 minutes. (You can also mix it by kneading it by hand.)
Please adjust the baking time and temperature according to your household oven. Recipe by Youtank

Ingredients

8 servings
  1. 260 gramsStrong bread flour
  2. 40 gramsCake flour
  3. 30 gramsSugar
  4. 4 gramsSalt
  5. 30 gramsButter
  6. 210 gramsMilk and eggs
  7. 4 gramsDry yeast
  8. 8 gramsA. Black cocoa (soaked in 1 teaspoon water)
  9. 1B. Custard Cream
  10. 1B. Anko paste
  11. 1Almond slices and white sesame

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the dough in the bread maker. After it has finished kneading (about 20 minutes), take the dough out. Divide it into 2 equal portions, and return A and the dough to the bread maker. Knead for about five minutes.

  2. 2

    Once the cocoa and plain dough are finished, cover with a wet cloth for the first rise (the photo shows them after rising).

  3. 3

    After rising, divide into 8 equal portions (16), roll them up nicely, and let rest for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    If you are adding in the B cream and anko paste, add the custard to the cocoa dough. Add the anko paste to the plain dough.

  5. 5

    Don't put too much filling in! Wrap each ball up and tightly close the ends.

  6. 6

    Place both types of dough into a paper lined or greased pan. Let rise for the second time to about 1.5 times the original size.

  7. 7

    After they have plumped up nicely, coat with milk or egg whites, top with sliced almonds and white sesame if you like, and bake in the oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes.

  8. 8

    Cover with aluminum foil after about 10 minutes to keep the tops from burning. After baking, drop the whole pan from above to remove the hot air.

  9. 9

    The contrast is cute.~ These are checkerboard patterned bread rolls.

  10. 10

    Eat them plain, or enjoy it with your favorite filling.

  11. 11

    This time I filled them with whipped cream using a cream puff pastry bag.

  12. 12

    This was the previous top photo. This has a gentle color scheme with the plain cocoa.
