I bake a lot of bread lately. And not only use the stand mixer for kneading the dough, but I also love to knead by hand too. This time is an easy hand-knead milk bun that's so soft. I filled the bun with chocolate butter and whipped cream. I use milk chocolate for a lovely milky taste but you can use dark chocolate too. Because I don't want the chocolate butter to be solid hard after refrigerating (well this recipe, you need to refrigerate after filling the bun) I add a small amount of oil into the chocolate butter.

Beat the whipping cream and icing sugar together until firm peaks form. Cut the bun. Spread the chocolate butter over the bread and fill with whipped cream. Decorate with chopped milk chocolate and sprinkle the icing sugar over the top. Chocolate Cream buns
