Chocolate bread

Method

1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour with the salt, sugar, butter, yeast, cocoa powder, melted chocolate, milk and water, mixing well for 5 minutes.

2. Tip the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, then return the dough back into the bowl to rest for 1 hour.

3. Add the chocolate chips to the dough and mix in well for 3 minutes.

4. Shape the dough into a large ball and place it onto a baking parchment lined baking sheet to rise for 1-2 hours, until light to the touch.

5. Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas 6.

6. Slice a cross into the dough ball and bake for 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
