For the dough :
Dry ingredients:
300gr bread flour (2 cups)
30gr sugar (2TBS)
3gr salt (1tsp)
4gr instant yeast (1/2 sachet)

Wet ingredients:
110ml warm milk (almost boiled and cooled for a fluffier result) (1/2 cup)
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract/paste
120gr Room Temperature Tangzhong made by:
In a pan heat 100ml water and 20gr flour. Stir constantly until constistency is like pudding. Bring to room temperature before use.

Add later:
30gr butter room temperature (1/8cup)

Egg Wash:
1 egg yolk
15ml milk (1 TBS)

Combine the dry ingredients
Add the wet ingredients and knead on your stand mixer for 2 mins.
Add the butter and continue mixing for 10 minutes on medium-high speed
Transfer dough to an oiled bowl, cover and let proof until double (1-2h)
Transfer to an oiled surface and divide it to 65gr pieces.
Keep just 20gr of dough aside (which you'll use to create the tails)
Shape like logs but keep the one side a little thicker (resembling the butt of the mouse 🤭) and add their tails

Transfer to a parchment paper lined baking pan.
Let proof for 30mins

Meanwhile preheat your oven at 200°C and
Prepare the Filling:
240gr hazelnuts (1 3/4cups)
15gr pure vanilla extract (1TBS)
25gr cocoa powder (2 TBS)
70gr honey/maple syrup/icing sugar (a little less than 1/4 cup)
1/4 tsp salt
120ml milk (1/2 cup)
70 gr couverture melted (1/2 cup)

In a blender, grind the hazelnuts very finely (approx. 5 mins)
Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix for 2 more minutes.
(If you don't use all of it, you can keep it at room temperature for a week. If storing in the fridge, you will need to remelt since it will solidify)

After the buns have proofed with scissors create the ears: cut 2 incisions on the head of each mouse and give them a circular shape resembling mice ears

Egg wash the buns and bake for 20-25 minutes
After they are baked wash with water-diluted honey.

Make a hole carefully at the bottom of each mouse bun and add in the Gianduja filling.
Add eyes to the mouse buns (I used chocolate which I cut in small circular pieces)

Enjoy 🤤 (or decorate your house with them 😂)
