Mix flour and sugar in the bowl of the mixer.
Dissolve yeast in milk and add the liquid to the flour, a little at a time, starting to knead at low speed.
Then combine eggs, lightly beaten, and salt.
Finally add butter and knead at medium speed until dough is smooth and homogeneous.
Shape into a ball and let rest covered until doubled in a greased bowl.
Transfer the dough onto the working surface and divide it in half and in half again, so to have 4 pieces.

Divide each part into 4 equal balls.
Work 4 balls at a time: roll out each ball into a disk, brush each disk with soft butter soft and get each above another. Roll the dough into a small loaf and cut it into 5 triangles, as shown in the picture.
You will get 20 triangles/petals.
Arrange the triangles into a baking pan (lined with parchment paper), trying to fix the pointed ends to the inside.
Let rise covered until doubled.
Brush with beaten egg or milk or soft butter, sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds, grated chocolate or granulated sugar and bake at 190° for about 30 minutes.
If the brioche turns golden too quickly, cover with aluminum while baking.
