  • 1.5 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active yeast
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder organic

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Warm half a cup (120ml) of water and add 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast to it. Mix well
  2. Let it sit for 10 minutes or until frothy.
  3. In 1/4 cup (60ml) hot water, mix in the cocoa powder and 1 Tablespoon sugar and keep aside for cooling.
  4. Take 1/3 of the yeast mixture, 1 (or 1.5)cup bread flour, cocoa mixture, 1 teaspoon butter and knead into a soft dough.
  5. In a greased mixing bowl, add the rest of the flours and salt and mix well.
  6. Add the remaining butter, yeast mixture, and water and knead for 8-10 minutes. ( if using stand mixer, 3-4 minute batches with intermittent scraping)
