This was batch #2. Deeeeeeeeeeee-licious!!!!! Mmmm-scrumptious!!!!!! I just had to make it for the bbq. We only had 8 left by the time the backyard bbq rolled around on 6/30.
In case the original site takes forever to load, these are the ingredients that you'll need:
1/2 cup whole milk (I used 2%)
a pinch of white sugar
1.5 tsp of dry active yeast
1/4 cup white sugar
1 egg @ room temp
3 tbs unsalted butter
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp kosher salt
225grams or 1/2 pound of semi sweet chocolate
1/4 cup white sugar
1-2 tsp cinnamon
3 tbs unsalted butter
crushed walnuts (optional)
My Version of Directions (since I don't have a mixer):
1. Warm the milk in microwave for 20 seconds, stir in pinch of sugar, then sprinkle yeast on top and stir. Let rest for about 5-10 minutes or until foamy.
2. Mix the white sugar with room temp egg. Shave 2-3 tbs of butter into the mixture and stir until only small chunks of butter are left.
3. Pour the milk/yeast mixture into the sugar/egg mixture. This is your wet portion.
4. In a separate bowl, mix flour and salt. Pour 1/3 of the flour mixture into the wet portion and mix well. Do this 2 more times.
5. Stir well and then when it gets too tough to stir, knead the dough for about 5 minutes or until the dough is cohesive... should look like a lump of dough.
6. Place your dough in a buttered bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest for an hour in a warm place.
7. Meanwhile, place chocolate into a food processor along with the sugar and cinnamon and butter. Process until it's a chocolatey mess.
8. Once the dough is ready, roll it out into a rectangle that's about 12in by 20in.
9. Spread the chocolatey mixture over and if you're using crushed walnuts, sprinkle over the chocolatey goodness. Roll up the dough starting with the 12in side.
10. Cut into 12 slices and place in a buttered cupcake pan (I used Pam instead).
11. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees F for about 15-20 minutes or until golden.
