White Chocolate Caramel Gingerbread Brioche Rolls
Yield 12 rolls

Ingredients

Dough

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 (0.25oz) package (7g) or 2 1/4 teaspoons Platinum Yeast
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 cup warm water (120-130°F)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • White chocolate chips (for filling)
  • Caramel bits (for filling)

Topping

  • 1 large egg (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon cloves

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine 2 cups flour, salt, yeast, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  • Add water, butter, molasses, and eggs; mix for one minute. While mixer is running, gradually add remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, just enough to form a shaggy dough.
  • Switch to dough hook attachment and knead for 5 minutes or until dough is soft and smooth.
  • Shape dough into a ball and place in a large greased bowl. Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm location to rise until doubled in size, about 1-1½ hours.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces and shape into a ball. Press an indentation into each ball and place 5-6 pieces of both white chocolate chips and caramel bits. Roll dough around candy and pinch bottom of dough together to make sure candy doesn't melt out during baking.
  • Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm location until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk together egg and water. Gently brush over rolls. Stir together sugar and spices. Sprinkle over egg wash.
  • Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes, until edges of rolls just start to turn golden.
  • Serve warm.
