Hazel CastilloRecipe Found! -- Coffee Bun
April 21st 2008 20:03
Hey Raven! I found the recipe and it couldn't be as identical as this is especially since the name of the most famous store in Singapore's (Rotiboy) indicated in the recipe (from RecipeZaar.com). I have seen them make this and although I love baking, this is one the most tedious I have ever seen!
The only time I will probably try this is on a winter day (or when I can afford centralized airconditioning) because I can't imagine the sweat from all these steps!
I am very sure the wonderful aroma that will fill your kitchen/home will just make you all giddy with excitement, and if done right I'm positive you'll love it. I hope you can try one out before making this yourself, I bet that'll make you want to make it even more.
Ingredients:
Filling
200 g salted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
70 g brown sugar
Topping
200 g butter, softened
160 g icing sugar, sifted
3 large egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon coffee flavoring (available from bakery supplies shop, You can use 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder dissolved in 1)
1 pinch ground cinnamon, can be added to the coffee flavouring for extra flavour
200 g all-purpose flour, sifted
Sweet dough
500 g bread flour, sifted
20 g powdered milk, sifted
75 g caster sugar
6 g salt
8 g instant yeast
1 egg, lightly beaten
270 g water or milk (do not use milk powder if using milk)
60 g butter, softened
Directions
For Filling:.
--Beat butter in electric mixer on medium speed with the paddle attachment for three minutes.
--Blend in vanilla essence and brown sugar.
--Spoon mixture into bowl and refrigerated until firm.
--Divide mixture into 20 g portion into ball. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
For Topping:.
--Beat butter and icing sugar in electric mixer with the paddle attachment on medium speed for five minute until mixture is light and fluffy.
--Gradually beat in eggs.
--Mix in coffee flavouring.
--Sift flour onto mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
--Refrigerate until ready to use.
For Sweet Dough:.
--Mix sifted flour, castor sugar and salt in electric mixer with dough hook on low speed for one minute
--Mix in yeast.
--Add egg and water or milk.
--Mix on low speed for another minute.
--Mix on medium speed for eight minutes.
--Mix in butter.
--Mix five minutes more on medium speed until soft, smooth and elastic(but not sticky) dough forms.
--Remove dough from mixture and shape into a ball.
--Divide the dough into 55 g portions(should get 17 portions).
--Roll each portion into a ball. Cover the balls of dough and leave to rest for 10 minute
To shape the buns:.
--Flatten a ball of dough with the palm of your hand.
--Place a ball of filling in the centre of the dough.
--Gather the edge and pinch to seal. (Be sure to seal well or the filling will leak out during baking.)
--Pat into shape and place on a greased baking tray.
--Repeat with remaining portions of dough.
--Place each bun about 7.5 cm apart on the baking trays.
--Prove for 45 min in a warm place.
--Pipe the topping on the buns in a spiral, starting from the centre.
--Bake in preheated oven at 200 deg C for 12 to 15 min or until buns are lightly brown.
Please let me know if any of you actually tries to make this one and how it went. I'm really curious. Because of the summer heat where I am now I am not even thinking twice about not trying this recipe until about 6 months from now.
enjoy!

Did You Know...
Turkish bridegrooms were once required to make a promise during their wedding ceremonies to always provide their new wives with coffee. If they failed to do so, it was grounds for divorce! (Ouch!)
