Mexican Coffee Buns AKA Rotiboy 墨西哥面包【咖啡奶酥面包】

Mexican coffee buns, also known as Rotiboy, are soft and fluffy breads filled with butter and topped with a sweet, crispy coffee-flavoured cookie crust. I don't really like the greasy butter fillings, so in my version, I added chocolate chips inside, which pair wonderfully with the coffee buns.

It's been a long time since I last baked Rotiboy.
My son had it for breakfast and said, "Mmm... very nice!"
