作り方

• 1 - Prepare the Dough:
  In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. In another bowl, combine warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix wet and dry ingredients.
• 2 - Knead the Dough:
  Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled.
• 3 - Prepare the Filling:
  In a bowl, mix cocoa powder and chopped dark chocolate. This will be the filling for the babka.
• 4 - Shape the Babka:
  Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread the chocolate mixture evenly over it, then roll tightly into a log.
• 5 - Braid the Dough:
  Cut the log in half lengthwise and twist the two pieces together. Place into a greased loaf pan.
• 6 - Second Rise:
  Cover the loaf and let it rise for another 30 minutes until puffy.
• 7 - Bake the Babka:
  Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
• 8 - Cool and Serve:
  Let the babka cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
