Chocolate and hazelnut brioche

Ingredients (serves 4) :

500g organic flour type T55

10g fleur de sel

75g organic cane sugar

75g warm organic milk

15g fresh yeast

4 organic eggs

300g Jean-Yves Bordier butter, at temperature

50g Valrhona dark chocolate

50 Terra Candido Piedmont hazelnuts, chopped

1 organic egg

1 tablespoon warm water

Recipe:

Place flour, salt and sugar in a food processor fitted with a hook. Add the milk, baking powder and eggs. Mix to a smooth paste. Add the butter and mix again. When the dough is smooth, place it in a bowl, wrap it in plastic wrap and set aside, away from draughts, for around 2h00.

Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a rectangle, sprinkle with crushed chocolate and hazelnuts, then roll up. Place the boudin in a kougloff dish or cake tin.

Beat the egg, then add the warm water. Brush the brioche with the gilding. Set aside and let the dough rise for a further twenty minutes in a 35-degree oven.

Brown the brioche once more, then bake for 30 min at 180°C.

Cut out a pretty slice on a plate and enjoy with an espresso or hot chocolate!
