Instructions

In a bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, non-fat dry milk powder, sugar, salt, and yeast. Stir to mix.
Add eggs, egg yolk, and water. Mix on low until a shaggy dough forms.
With the mixer on low, add butter one tablespoon at a time, allowing for complete incorporation before each addition.
Increase speed to medium-high and knead for 15-20 minutes until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the bowl sides.
Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, shape into a ball, and cover to rise at room temperature for one hour.
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 8 to 12 hours.
Divide the dough into six equal portions, about 125 grams each.
Shape each portion into a tight ball using the cup-and-roll method.
Place dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let proof until puffy, 1 to 3 hours depending on temperature.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Chill the buns for a few minutes before baking.
Whisk egg, egg white, and water for egg wash. Brush on buns and sprinkle sesame seeds if desired.
Bake for 16-18 minutes until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 190°F (88°C).
Remove from the oven and cool completely.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding bacon or different cheese varieties.
Feel free to customize toppings based on personal preference.
The dough can be made a day ahead for easier meal prep.
