    Here's how:

      Heat the milk to about 25 °C and dissolve the yeast in it.

    • 2

      Combine all the ingredients except the chocolate chips in a mixing bowl using a dough hook until the dough is smooth and elastic—about 10 minutes in a stand mixer or 20 minutes by hand. Add the chocolate chips during the last few minutes.

      Let it rise for at least 30 minutes.

    • 4

      Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll them out. Cover with a cloth and let rise for about 30 minutes.

    • 5

      Preheat the oven to 230 °C. Brush with a beaten egg and sprinkle with a little granulated sugar. Bake for about 12 minutes. Let them cool slightly. Cut the rolls into bite-sized pieces. Lower the oven temperature to about 150 °C and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Open the oven door and let the cookies dry out in the residual heat.
