Once you have a compact dough, add the soft butter, a piece at a time, and continue kneading until the butter is completely absorbed and the dough smooth and elastic. Form a ball and let it rise in the bowl of the planetary mixer, covered, until doubled (from one to two hours depending on the temperature).
