Brioches suisses (Chocolate Chip-Custard Brioches)

 



I rarely buy baked goods from the bakery, lately. 


Not that I think that mine is the best but I (and my family) are addicted to the homemade taste. If you cook (and bake) a lot, I think that you will understand what I said, because the taste of homemade food comes from the ingredients that we love to use. 
When comes to baked goods, the taste of it comes from flour, butter, chocolate, etc. and most of them have a unique taste. So every time that we eat something that we bought from outside, we always tell each other that that it will be better if they use .......... (fill with the brand that we like, haha). 

Last week I went to a bakery and my sister pointed at the Pain suisses and told me that it looked good, and I answered her suddenly "I can make it for you". 

I tested the recipe until I got the taste that I liked a long time ago, but I still didn't make the clip, so I think it's a good time to shoot the video and serve this bread too.

The bread that I made is "Brioches suisses" a brioche bread filled with pastry cream and chocolate. It's in a Pain suisses category but for Pain suisses you can find the one that's made with croissant dough too. So to make it more specific, this one is "Brioches suisses".

You might think that it's hard to make, but if you knead the dough with the stand mixer, the rest is very easy. My only suggestion is that keep the dough cool until you finish shaping it as a load of butter in the dough will make the dough sticky and hard to work with.
