Bread Machine Brioche

Submitted by Old widow

"I recently made this for the first time in my new bread machine. I found the recipe in a bread machine cookbook I bought at the goodwill. The author said that she liked it cold but I prefer it hot from the oven and smothered in butter. The dough is a bit sticky, I suggest buttering your hands first before shaping. The bread machine mixes the dough, you do the rest."

I followed the recipe exactly, and the results were wonderful! The only problem with this recipe is that if you’re not careful, you won’t get any brioche because everyone else will have already devoured it! Great recipe!!!
