Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Mixing the Wet Ingredients

In a bowl, combine the warm milk with the sugar and condensed milk. Once mixed, add in the dry yeast and crack in the egg. Whisk the mixture until everything is well combined.
2. Combining with Dry Ingredients
Now, in a separate large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Gradually pour the wet ingredients mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Use a spatula or your hands to combine everything until a dough forms.
3. Kneading the Dough
Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Begin kneading the dough, gradually adding the softened butter as you knead. Continue kneading for about 10 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Allowing the Dough to Rise
Place the kneaded dough back into the mixing bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
5. Shaping the Bread
After the dough has risen, cut about one-third of the dough and roll it out into a rectangle measuring approximately 25×40 cm. Once rolled out, carefully roll the dough into a log shape and then cut the log into smaller pieces.
6. Preparing for Baking
Place the pieces of dough into a baking pan, leaving some space between each piece. Repeat the same process with the remaining one-third of the dough to make rolls. Allow the buns to rest for another hour.
7. Baking the Bread
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Before placing the buns in the oven, brush the top of each bun with an egg wash for a shiny finish. Bake the buns for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through. For the rolls, bake for about 20 minutes.
8. Finishing Touches
While the bread is baking, whisk together equal parts of butter and condensed milk. Once the bread is done baking, brush the tops of the buns with this mixture while they are still warm for added richness and sweetness.
9. Serving and Enjoying
Once the bread has cooled slightly, remove it from the baking pans and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice, serve, and enjoy your freshly baked Fluffy Condensed Milk Bread! Whether enjoyed on its own, toasted with butter, or paired with your favorite spreads, this bread is sure to delight your taste buds.
