Cooking Instructions!
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, warm the milk for about 30 seconds until lukewarm. Add the melted butter, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract to the lukewarm milk and mix well.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour as needed.
Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and gently knead in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Place the dough balls on a greased baking sheet, leaving some space between them for rising.
Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the brioche buns for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
While the buns are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the buns are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm buns.
Serve the Chocolate Chip Brioche Buns warm for a gooey and delicious treat! Enjoy!
