Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Make the cocoa dough first. Except for the butter, pour the cocoa dough ingredients into a basin and knead into a dough.

   

2. 2 Knead until a relatively thick film can be pulled out, add softened butter, and knead until the expansion stage, when the dough is very smooth.

   

3. 3 The film can be pulled out, no glove film required.

   

4. 4 Make the original version in the same way.

   

5. 5 Knead the dough into a ball and pour it into a large bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator to ferment for 6 hours.

   

6. 6 Ferment until the dough doubles in size, and if you poke it with flour on your finger and it does not shrink or collapse, it means the fermentation is complete.

   

7. 7 Use a rolling pin to deflate the fermented dough. Divide the cocoa dough into a 35g piece of dough (the bear's head and hands), and divide the rest into 3 small doughs. For the original dough, first divide a 25g piece of dough (the bear's head and hands), and divide the rest equally into 3 small doughs. Roll them into a round shape and cover with plastic wrap to rest for 15 minutes.

   

8. 8 Flatten the relaxed dough and roll it into a round shape again, place it one by one into the mold, put it in the oven, put a bowl of hot water, and ferment at 60 degrees for about 30 minutes until it doubles in size.

   

9. 9 During fermentation we will deal with the bear’s ears and hands. 2g each for ears and 1.5g each for hands. Divide 12 ears and hands from the cocoa dough, and 12 ears and hands from the original dough, roll them into rounds and set aside.

   

10. 10 Take out the fermented dough, and then place the small pieces for the ears and hands in the corresponding positions.

    

11. 11 Place the shaped dough into the preheated oven and bake on the middle shelf at 170 degrees for 25 minutes.

    

12. 12 After taking it out of the oven, unmold it, place it on a baking sheet to cool, and use a black pigment pen to draw expressions.
