TASTY LITTLE BUTTER BUNS

Yesterday went through those recipe books ...looking for bread or buns to make for my family. So i decided to make TASTY LITTLE BUTTER BUNS by Agnes Chang ... this buns are very popular in Kuala Terengganu. This morning i gave it a try .... it turns out not so perfect because the filling came out... but it stil taste very nice ! I vil try it again with a different method so that the filling (butter + icing sugar) can wrap in easily :D

• 1 portion of BASIC SWEET BUN DOUGH ( refer to my older post )

FILLING

• 200g butter, soften & mix with
• 40g icing sugar

GLAZING

• 1 egg, lightly beaten with
• 1/8 salt
• some melted butter for brushing on top

1. Divide dough into 10g portions & shape into rounds. Rest for 15 mins.
2. Flatten & wrap up a little butter filling. Shape into rounds again & arrange them onto a greased 7" round baking tin, 1cm apart until full. (abt 19 balls)
3. Cover with cling wrap & leave to rise until all the buns have expanded & joined together to fill up the whole baking tin. ( abt 40 mins)
4. Glaze with beaten egg & bake in a pre-heated oven for 15 mins.
5. Remove from the oven, brush top with melted butter to give buns the shine.
