homemade pocky

Homemade pocky
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/4 teaspoon almond extract or 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup bread flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 teaspoons water, at room temperature
9 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped
Preheat the oven to 300° F. Use a wooden spoon to stir the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until they're creamy and smooth. Add the egg and extract and stir to combine.
Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a #7 plain round (3/8-inch) pastry tip. Pipe the batter onto two parchment-lined baking sheets in straight lines, about 6 inches long and at least 1/2 an inch apart.
Bake the dough until the sticks are set and light golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Let the sticks cool on the sheets on cooling racks for 5 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter. Save the parchment-lined sheets for the next step.
Melt the chocolate in the microwave in a narrow, microwave-safe vessel (I used a Pyrex glass measuring cup) in 15-second increments. One at time, carefully dip each stick into the melted chocolate. In order to get the chocolate up higher on the stick, tip the cup on its side and dip each stick in where the chocolate is the highest. Scrape off any excess chocolate and lay each stick on the prepared sheets.
Transfer the sheets to the refrigerator to set the chocolate. Store in an airtight container in the freezer or fridge. Alternately, you could temper the chocolate so that the chocolate is hard at room temperature. =)bnh
