Again, Mbak Retno's kitchen inspired me to spend my day in the kitchen and baked these buns. It was fun to play with the dough and made some cute forms...heheh. I made the filling from home made choco paste from happy home baking. These buns are really moist :-) . Thanks Mbak Retno!

Method:
choco paste:

Buns:
- mix all ingredients in mixer bowl except salt, knead using speed 1 for 5 minutes, then add salt, change the mixer speed into speed 2, continue kneading until you get elastic & unsticky dough
- Place the dough in a big bowl and cover it with damp cloth, keep it in warm place and let it proof
- punch the dough to release the gas and divide the dough ( make each dough into 60-80gr) fill each bun in with choco paste then form each dough.
