Yes, I'm a food lover. And occasionally you can treat yourself right? This chocolate bread is so delicious. Creamy, with a soft taste and a chocolate accent. Delicious to eat warm and as a nice site effect your whole house smells delicious.
The spices gives a great warm flavor to this bread. That way you bake this delicious bread, where you can pamper your family (and yourself).
Because ...
- By combining yeast, milk and sugar the yeast will be activated after five minutes. That way you can check very easily if your yeast is still working. If you don’t see any bubbles arise on top, your yeast won’t work anymore and you should use a new batch.
- The sugar added to your yeast mixture is yeast “food”. They convert the sugar to oxygen which makes your bread airy. Don’t discard the sugar for that case.
- By placing first a slightly wet towel and then cover that with plastic foil you get a moist warm environment while rising the bread. That way your dough remains moist and rise faster.
Substitutes
- Substitute white chocolate with milk chocolate
- A great substitute is to replace 85 grams of white chocolate with 30 grams white, 30 gram milk and 30 grams dark chocolate.
Delicious
with
- Add 50 grams chopped walnuts to the dough (when adding the chocolate)
Budget friendly
version
- Replace butter with margarine
- Replace white chocolate with milk chocolate
The price of this budget friendly version becomes €1.25 for the whole bread
Storage
- Normally you’ll eat the bread the same day, because it will get stale.
- In a special bread container bread will stay fresh up to 3 days.
- Don’t store bread in the refrigerator. Because of the moist in a refrigerator, the bread gets a different structure. Not really tasty.
- Bread can be frozen quite well up to two weeks. Take the bread of the freezer 3 hours before you’re planning to eat. If you want to eat your bread warm, you bake it 3 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius (right out of the freezer).

Ingredients
- 5 grams yeast
- 250 ml water lukewarm

- 30 grams Dutch unprocessed cocoa
- 1 teaspoon gingerbread spices
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 30 grams dark brown sugar

- 25 grams butter room temperature
Ingredients you need per step are listed below the step in Italic
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast with 1 teaspoon of sugar in the lukewarm water.
- Let stand for 5 minutes. (When bubbles are formed, the yeast is good, otherwise you should use new yeast).

- Pour the yeast in and start kneading. When it becomes a cohesive dough, put the dough from the bowl onto a floured work surface.
- Continue to knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough, about 10-15 minutes. You can also use a mixer with dough hooks.

- Let it rise for 1 hour.
- Transfer the dough onto the floured work surface and press out the air.
- Press into a flat piece and spread the chocolate over it. Knead the dough slightly, so that the chocolate is well distributed. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Form a half ball (see photo) and place on a baking tray.
