Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour Ensure to measure it correctly for best results.
  • 0.25 cups granulated sugar This adds a lovely sweetness.
  • 1 tbsp active dry yeast Make sure it's fresh for proper rising.
  • 0.5 tsp salt Enhances the flavor.
  • 1 cup milk Warm slightly before mixing.
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter Melted, for a rich taste.
  • 0.5 cups chocolate chips Feel free to use your favorite flavor.

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, mix the warm milk, sugar, and active dry yeast, and let it rest for about 5 minutes until frothy. This will help your cruffins rise beautifully.
  • Once it's frothy, stir in the melted butter and salt, followed by the all-purpose flour. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Knead it gently for a few minutes until it's tacky but not sticky.
  • Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the dough into a rectangle, then brush with melted butter and sprinkle with chocolate chips before rolling it up tightly.
  • Cut the rolled dough into slices and place them into a muffin tin. Bake for about 20 minutes or until they are golden brown and puffed up.
  • Let them cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy these flaky, sweet cruffins with a cup of coffee or tea!

Notes

These cruffins are truly a delightful treat, perfect for breakfast or dessert! Experiment with different fillings like fruit or nuts for variety.
