These Chocolate Chip Brioche Rolls are soft, rich, and buttery with pockets of melted chocolate throughout. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack fresh from the oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups warm milk (heated to 100 F degrees)
  • 6 Tbsp. melted butter (not hot)
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 1/4 tsp. active dry yeast
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour, plus 2 Tbsp. if needed
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 egg, for egg wash

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and sugar. Sprinkle in the yeast, whisk gently, and let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add the flour and salt. Mix on low speed until the dough begins to come together. Add the eggs and mix on medium speed for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is overly sticky, add up to 2 tablespoons additional flour.
  3. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise at room temperature for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Gently deflate the dough and knead in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and shape into smooth balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each roll. Top with extra chocolate chips if desired.
  6. Cover and let rise for 15 minutes. Brush the tops with beaten egg wash.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use room-temperature eggs for the best dough texture.
  • Do not overheat the milk, as high temperatures can damage the yeast.
  • Store leftover rolls in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Warm briefly before serving for extra softness.
  • These rolls freeze well for up to 2 months.
