• 6) Pour batter into a greased loaf pan and let bake for 25 minutes or until bread is completely cooked through
• 7) Let cool for 10 minutes, with a knife gently loosen edge to release bread, put bread on a plate and let thoroughly cool
• 8) Once bread is cool begin to mix together ingredients for the glaze
• 9) In a mixing bowl add together cocoa powder and confectionery sugar, slowly add in half of the soy milk, mix together ingredients, if necessary add in the rest of the soy milk.
