  1. Make the dough

    • Add the bread flour, sugar, milk powder, yeast, salt, milk and egg to the bowl of a stand mixer, keeping the salt away from the yeast.
    • Knead on low speed for 10 minutes until the dough comes together.
    • Add the softened butter one cube at a time, then knead on low-medium speed for 10-20 minutes until the dough passes the window-pane test.
    Step 1
  2. First proof

    • Cover the dough and let it proof until doubled in size.

  3. Shape the bites

    • Weigh the dough and divide it into 20 equal pieces, rolling each into a ball.
    • Flatten each ball, place mozzarella in the center, then wrap the dough around it and pinch to seal.
    • Arrange the bites seam-side down in a round baking pan.
    Step 3
  4. Second proof

    • Cover the pan and proof until the bites look puffy.
