  3. Take it out on a clean surface and knead it for 10-15 minutes.
  4. Add 3 teaspoons of soft butter to the dough and keep kneading it until you get a soft, stretchy dough.
  5. Grease a bowl with soyabean oil and place the dough in it. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in a warm place for 3 hours.
  6. For making the chocolate filling take butter and powdered sugar in a saucepan and mix it on medium heat until they're properly combined.
  7. Take it off the heat and add chopped dark to this. Keep mixing it until the chocolate melts.

  17. Bake this in a preheated oven on 180°c for 35-40 minutes.
