Recipe's preparation

Instructions
• 1.Place milk and yeast in mixing jug and heat 3 mins/temp 37/speed 1. Make sure the yeast has fully dissolved. I found this took longer with cold milk so I had to add an extra minute to this step

• 3.Now add the apricots and choc chips and mix reverse/10 sec/sp 5 or by hand if the mixture is too thick.
• 4.Place dough in a bowl and cover with a tea towel. Place in a warm spot to prove for at least 30 mins or until doubled in size.
• 5.Knock down dough and break off small bits. Roll into balls (a bit bigger than a golf ball) and place close together on a lined oven tray. Set aside to prove a 2nd time until they have about doubled in size.
