Your little brioches are too cute to resist. Eating these in moderation would be torture.:) Thanks for participating. last blog post: A Mango Coconut Kulfi and A Peachy Mango Milkshake

tom – Thanks!

ts – Could’ve been cuter if I was actually good at it.

susan – Minty fresh breath and butter.. Mmmmm.

rainbow – Pyrex is indestructible! Ask my right foot.

boaz – Thanks!

claire – I’m hoping my little pot of mint stays alive.

chow – I don’t get what you’re saying.

tanna – Other than the ones were the heads fell off…

kevin – Thanks!

sweet – Will pick some of those disk-like squashes when I get a chance.

dee – The fluted pan are way too dainty for me.

manggy – Huh? I don’t get why it’s vulgar. I can’t stand volume measurements, either. I used this kneading technique: http://www.gourmet.com/magazine/video/2008/03/bertinet_sweetdough. Good therapy.

Oh Jude, that last sentiment is VULGAR! Hahaha. Thanks for this recipe. Thanks for putting the actual weight (I'm so sick of cup measures!!). I don't have a mixer with a dough hook, so do you think it would be too difficult to knead it in by hand? Or does the high butter content lend itself to straight hand mixer-bleding? (I made a high butter dough yesterday in 31°C weather... Like manipulating pancake dough on a counter.) PS Thanks for following through on our little experiment on eGullet! It looks fab! last blog post: Cauliflower Risotto

Great minds and all that… I just got hold of a brioche recipe via Dorie Greenspan that I was planning on baking. I love your detailed post – I’m going the muffin route I’m sure

Wow! I'm so impressed. I'm way too big of a wussy to try brioche, heck I'm even worried about making pie crust sometimes. By the way, I roasted those patty pan squashes and put 'em up tonight. You should really try them out, cute and delicious, how can you go wrong? Def not as cute as those little brioches though... last blog post: Roasted Patty Pan Squash
