Cute tart Santa Claus bread is here
Overview
When my daughter was young, during Christmas, her father and I would secretly stuff her favorite gifts into a big, beautiful Christmas stocking. We did a great job of keeping it secret and made our daughter believe that there really is a Santa Claus in the world. However, my daughter was a little skeptical about this and asked how Santa Claus climbed in from the chimney and how he knew what kind of gifts the children liked. A series of questions often shot at me like a barrage, catching me off guard. On Christmas when my daughter was four years old, the kindergarten teacher held a lively and joyful festival for them and invited their parents to participate. When Santa Claus came to the classroom to distribute the candy, the children came up and surrounded Santa Claus. The woman was too short to grab him, so she tugged on Santa Claus's pants. As a result, Santa Claus's pants were almost pulled down. The daughter discovered that the old man was actually wearing pantyhose underneath, just like the teacher! Since then, my daughter has seen through Santa Claus's lies. However, every year at Christmas, she hopes that I will decorate our home with a more festive atmosphere and ask for some gifts that she likes. Christmas is coming again, and I have long wanted to make some Santa Claus bread for her to warm up the atmosphere in advance, but I only saw some photos in magazines without specific recipes, so I used my favorite 65-degree soup recipe and tried to make a few. Unexpectedly, I was highly praised by my daughter. The recipe is very simple, and my friends may also try to make it.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Put all the bread ingredients except butter together and knead until smooth dough is formed. Add butter and continue kneading until the dough comes out. Then proceed to the first fermentation.
-
Take out the risen dough and deflate it, then divide it into 10 35g small doughs and 5 30g small doughs. After rolling into a round shape, let it rest for 15 minutes. Take a 35g small dough and roll it into an oval dough to serve as Santa Claus' face.
-
Take a 30g small dough and roll it into a triangular shape. Fold the pointed part over and roll up the round part below to use it as a Santa hat.
-
Take 3 grams of the remaining dough and knead it into a small ball for the top of the hat, then take another 5 grams and knead it into a small ball for the nose.
-
Take another 35g piece of dough, roll it into an oval shape, and fold it in half.
-
Cut into thin strips with a knife, and twist each strip into a spiral.
-
Just pack up all the prepared ones and place them on the baking sheet for secondary fermentation. After rising, brush the whole thing with egg liquid.
-
Add an appropriate amount of red yeast powder to the remaining egg liquid to turn it red. Use the red egg liquid to paint Santa's hat and nose red. Preheat the oven to 210 degrees and bake for 10 minutes. Take it out and let it cool.
-
Sift the icing sugar over the ball and beard of the hat, and then draw the eyes with melted chocolate.
