Chocolate Cherry Brioche Buns
With a blend of the soft, buttery richness from the brioche combined with the decadent chocolate and tart cherries, these buns are a treat that’s both elegant and comforting . These buns procure their magical power from Tangzhong, a paste or roux made from milk and flour. It has two essential purposes: lock in moisture while keeping your buns light and bouncy and keep them fresher longer.
