Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cups (15 oz/426 g) bread flour
  • ¼ cup (1 oz/28 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon instant yeast
  • ¾ cup (4½ oz/128 g) bittersweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • cups (12 fl oz/360 ml) water, blood temperature

Notes

  • This recipe used bread flour to give the best rise and chew. Since cocoa powder is tenderizing, we recommend sticking with bread flour and not subbing with all-purpose flour for the best lift and texture.
  • This recipe uses instant yeast, which we find gives the best results. If you only have active dry yeast, you can use it for the recipe, but it will need to be proofed first. You can use the warm water required in the recipe to do this.
  • Blood temperature water means that it is the same temperature as your blood. To test this, place a drop of water on your wrist. It should feel neither hot nor cold.
  • For some fun variations, knead in about a cup of toasted, chopped nuts (walnuts are particularly delicious with chocolate, but pecans also work well) or chopped dried fruit along with the chocolate chips.
  • This bread is only slightly sweet. You can make it sweeter by serving it with jam or homemade Nutella, or play up the saltier side by serving it with salted butter or homemade peanut butter or almond butter (be sure to add the salt option).
