Instructions
 

  • In a bowl mix together flour, salt, sugar and yeast.

  • Transfer to the counter.
  • Knead it for 10 minutes until smooth, soft and elastic.
  • Take a small piece of dough and set aside.
  • Divide the remaining dough into two equal portions. To one portion add the smaller set aside piece. This is our main dough.
  • Divide the other portion into two equal portions.
  • To one portion add 1/2 tbs cocoa and knead to mix.
  • To the other portions, add one tbs of cocoa, instant coffee and water and mix to combine everything.
  • Oil three bowls and place the dough portions inside.
  • Rotate the bowl to coat the dough with oil.
  • Cover with cling wrap and set aside for 1 hour to 1 1/4 hours or until the dough is double the size.
  • Now transfer the  chocolate dough back to counter.
  • Divide both into seven equal portions and roll each potion into a small log.
  • Roll out the darker dough into a thin rectangle, place the lighter dough log inside and roll to cover. Do this for all seven portions.
  • Now divide the main dough into eight equal portions and roll each into a log.
  • Roll log into a rectangle, place the prepared chocolate roll inside and bring together the edges and pinch and seal.
  • Do this for all the seven rolls.
  • Line and grease a loaf tin and arrange all the seven rolls inside.
  • Use the eighth portion of main dough to fill in the gaps.
  • Cover and set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven for 200−C.
  • Give the dough a milk wash and bake the bread for 35-45 minutes in oven.
  • Once the bread sounds hollow to tap, remove it from oven and let it rest for 5 minutes on a wire rack.
  • Gently use a spatula to release the bread from the sides of the tin.
  • Flip it to release the bread from tin.
  • Let it cool on wire rack.
  • Slice it with a long serrated bread knife only when it is completely cool.
