Well ok, so maybe i fluked it!
A fortnight ago i made japelano bread for my husband and step son, it was fantastic, we went down to the waters edge and had a picnic breakfast with piping hot bread and cottage cheese… Anywho, while were were eating i asked the step kid (10) if we were to make bread together, what sort of bread should we make. Being 10, he said chocolate bread….
OF COURSE! Chocolate bread, who doesnt know how to make chocolate bread?! Me,i had no idea! And after googeling and searching and asking with little luck of finding a bread that would be chocolaty and suitable for breakfast i decided just to make bread with chocolate in it, expecting well… White bread with chocolate bits in it.
Now this morning when i pulled out the bread from the bread machine, as the chocolate aroma filled the room, can you imagine my surprise when i actually made chocolate bread with chocolate bits in it? OH MY GOSH, did it look, smell and taste good, it got the thumbs up from the kids and the adults and i think i even saw my non chocolate eating husband have a half slice…
Anyway, enough with the bragging and banter, here it is my chocolate bread – you should totally try it!
Fluke Chocolate Bread
Stuff you’ll need
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbls sugar
- 2 tbls dry yeast
- 375grm cooking chocolate – i used savings brand compound dark cooking chocolate and surprisingly that worked well and at $2.50 for the block it was an awesome buy! I cut some up in big chunks and shaved some, so chop it up in a wide range of sizes
How i did it
Chucked all the ingredients into a bread machine in the order listed, set the machine on the standard white bread setting, dark crust (for the extra cooking time)… Wam Bam Thank You Mam, three hours later – chocolate bread!
YUM!
