Makes: 10 | Prepare: 1 ½ hours | Cook: 12 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 500g pack white bread mix
  • 50g butter
  • 50g golden caster sugar
  • 100g milk chocolate chips
  • 200ml Shaken Udder Salted Caramel Milkshake
  • 100ml water

For The Crosses And Decoration:

  • 3 tbsps plain flour
  • 2 tbsps water
  • Golden syrup, melted, for brushing

How To Make Salted Caramel Hot Cross Buns:

1. Tip the bread mix into a bowl and stir in the sugar. Rub in the butter with your fingertips, then add the chocolate chips.

2. In a measuring jug, pour in the milkshake and water, then beat in the egg and transfer onto the dried ingredients. Mix to a very moist dough (the wetter the better).

3. Leave for 5 minutes then cut into 10 equal pieces and roughly shape into buns with oiled hands (this helps to stop the mixture sticking too much – try not to use extra flour as it will toughen the dough).

4. Space the buns apart on 2 greased baking sheets and cover loosely with cling film. Leave the buns in a warm room until they’ve risen to about half the size again (this will take anything from 45 minutes to 1¼ hours, depending on how warm and moist the environment is).

5. When the buns are risen, heat the oven to 220ºC/fan 200ºC/Gas Mark 7 and make the crosses. Mix the flour with the water to make a paste. Pour into a plastic food bag and make a tiny nick in one of the corners. Pipe crosses on each bun. 6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until risen and golden. Brush with golden syrup. The buns will keep fresh for a day, and after that are best toasted.

Cook’s Tip: Using a pre-prepared white bread mix cuts down on the time factor, but still produces delicious.
