Ingredients:

• 240 ml (1 cup) warm milk
• 1 egg
• 75 g (1/4 cup) condensed milk
• 30 g (2 tbsp) sugar
• 7 g (2 ¼ tsp) dry yeast
• 520 g (4 ¼ cups) all-purpose flour

For Brushing and Topping:

• 45 g (3 tbsp) butter (softened)

• 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions:

1. Prepare Liquid Ingredients:
   • In a bowl, mix sugar and condensed milk with warm milk.
   • Add dry yeast and an egg, then whisk until a homogeneous mixture is achieved.
2. Combine Dry and Liquid Ingredients:
   • In another large bowl, combine the liquid mixture with flour and salt.
   • Use dough hooks to work the dough until it becomes homogeneous.
   • Add softened butter and knead the dough for ten minutes until smooth.
3. Let the Dough Rest:
   • Cover the dough and let it rest for one hour to allow it to rise.
4. Shape the Bread:
   • Divide 2/3 of the dough and roll it into a 25×40 centimeter rectangle.
   • Roll the dough into a log and cut it into pieces. Place these pieces in a preheated baking dish.
   • Repeat the procedure with the remaining 1/3 of the dough to make smaller buns.
5. Second Rest:
   • Let the rolls rest for an additional one hour.
6. Preheat and Brush:
   • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
   • Brush the top of each bun with beaten egg before baking.
7. Bake:
   • Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes for larger buns and 20 minutes for smaller ones, or until golden brown.
8. Prepare the Topping:
   • Whisk together equal proportions of butter and condensed milk.
   • Apply this mixture to the warm buns.
9. Cool and Serve:
   • Let the baked goods cool completely before removing them from the baking pans.

Tips for Success:

• Use fresh ingredients for the best results.
