LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Generously grease 12-cup Bundt® pan. In large bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups of the flour, cocoa, sugar, salt, baking soda and yeast; mix well. In small saucepan, heat buttermilk and butter until very warm (120 to 130°F.). Add warm liquid and eggs to flour mixture; beat at low speed until moistened. Beat 3 minutes at high speed.
  • 2 By hand, stir in remaining 1 cup flour and 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips. Spoon dough evenly into greased pan. Cover with plastic wrap and cloth towel; let rise in warm place (80 to 85°F.) until light and doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • 3 Heat oven to 350°F. Uncover dough; bake 35 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Immediately invert bread onto wire rack; remove pan. Cool 45 minutes or until completely cooled.
  • 4 Place remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips and oil in resealable food storage freezer plastic bag; seal bag. Knead bag to evenly distribute oil. Microwave on HIGH for 30 to 60 seconds or until melted. Cut small hole in bottom corner of bag. Squeeze bag to drizzle melted chocolate over cooled bread.

Expert Tips

This delicious bread contains two forms of chocolate: cocoa powder and semisweet chocolate. Present the bread as a gift with the recipe to that special chocolate-lover on your list.

Despite its name, buttermilk contains no butter. It is skim milk that has had friendly bacteria cultures added to thicken it and give it a tangy flavor.

Creating this, "Double Chocolate Batter Bread" is a real statement of love from you to those you care most about. You create this bread from scratch. So few recipes these days give you the ingredients to combine the basic recipe and arrive with the total goal of a loaf of real bread that you have mixed, and baked, then finished with a quick chocolate drizzle. A loaf with unsweetened cocoa and chocolate chips in the bread and used to create the drizzle after the loaf has cooled. This is a special treat to folks you really care for! When it's warm for service, put out a container of room te

I made this for breakfast for my grandchildren and I must say they loved it. We ate it warm for breakfast that morning and several times later. I fixed it toasted the next morning. I will make this again.
