- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup butter (room temperature)

Instructions
- Mix the yeast and water together in the bowl of your mixer, and wait a few minutes (till little bubbles are appearing)

- Knead the dough for 5 minutes on P=2
- Add the butter 1 tbsp at a time while still kneading the dough on P=2, then knead the dough for 1o minutes on P=4 (the dough shouldn’t stick to the bowl at the end)
- Form a ball with the dough, place it back in the bowl and cover with a cloth
- Let the dough rise at room temperature for 30 minutes to a hour
- Place the dough on a floured surface and punch it to get the gas out
- Form a ball again, place it back in the bowl, cover and let the dough rise in the fridge overnight
- The next morning, on a floured surface, cut the dough into 6 equal-sized balls
- Place the balls in a loaf pan lined with parchment paper, cover it the pan with a cloth and let the dough rise one last time from 30 minutes to a hour at room temperature
- While waiting, preheat your oven at 350F
- Once the dough has doubled in size, brush the top of the loaf with egg yolk
- Bake the brioche for 27-30 minutes
- When done, let it sit in the pan for a few minutes
