Schoggi Brotli (Chocolate Rolls)

 I saw a recipe for Schoggi Brotli when I was looking up Swiss recipes last week. I decided to make them today with my mom - they are round and chocolate and sourdough!
   

Ingredients:

• 130    ml milk (about 4 ounces)
  
• 340    grams (12 ounces) sourdough starter 
  
• 2    teaspoons dry yeast
• 3   tablespoons sugar
• 60    grams butter, softened and cut into pats
  
• 1    teaspoon vanilla
  
• 1    teaspoon salt
• 2    tablespoons powdered milk
  
• 330    grams flour
• 150    grams dark chocolate, chopped  (I used chocolate chips which I partially chopped)
  
  For egg wash:
• 1    egg
• 1    tablespoon milk
• pinch    salt
• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  

Instructions:

1. Whisk together the milk, yeast, and sugar, and sourdough in a stand mixer - let sit will you measure other ingredients and chop the chocolate.
   
2. Mix in salt, powdered milk, and flour together. Add flour mix into milk mix in stand mixer bowl.
   
3. Knead until a dough starts to form, then add the butter and chocolate
4. Knead for about 6 minutes in a stand mixer with a dough hook. 
5. Cover and let rise for about an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
6. Spray wells of a 12 count and a 6 count cupcake pan with cookie spray.
   
7. Divide the dough into eighteen small balls (about 62 grams each) and place in the prepared cupcake pans.  
8. Let rest for 30 minutes or so to rise some more, after 15 minutes or so preheat oven to 375° F.
9. Whisk together the egg, water, and salt, then brush all of the balls.
10. Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until they are golden brown.
