Sweet buttery buns

To make the dough :

1. Mix all ingredients except the butter in the bowl and using a dough hook on low speed to form a ball. Add the butter bit by bit and mix until incorporated. Increase to a medium speed and knead the dough unitl smooth and elastic about 15-20 minutes. Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it rise until doubled in volume.

2. Deflate the dough and briefly knead for seconds, then divide into 5 equal pieces to be used.

3.Roll each piece into about 5- by 3-inch rectangle. Spread the butter over the dough leaving half centimetres around the edges and sprinkle a little salt over the butter. Roll the dough up from the shorter end into a small cylinder and seal the ends and seam tightly to prevent a butter leaking. Place the pieces with the seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper around a 1/2-inch space between buns.

4. Cover with plastic wrap and let the buns rise for another 45 minutes -1 hour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. When the buns are ready , then lightly brush the buns with the egg wash. Bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden brown on top. Leave to cool completely on wire rack and sprinkle with sifted icing on top before serving.
