Ingredients - Serves 8

Let's Get Started

  1. Warm the milk and add the yeast, let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, sugar, butter, eggs, flour, and salt. Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread the chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and cinnamon evenly over the dough.
  5. Roll up the dough tightly, cut it in half lengthwise, and twist the two halves together.
  6. Place the twisted dough in a greased loaf pan, cover, and let it rise for another hour.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the babka for 45 minutes, or until it's golden brown.
  8. Let the babka cool before slicing and serving.
