Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup water -- lukewarm (235 grams)
1 pinch sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups bread flour -- + 1 tablespoon or all-purpose
(332 grams)
3 1/4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa -- sifted (25 grams)
2 tablespoons sugar -- granulated
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons nuts -- chopped, to 4 T
4 tablespoons chocolate chips -- to 5 T
In the stand up mixer mix together the water and a pinch of sugar,
sprinkle the yeast on top and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes then stir together.
Add the flour, cocoa, (be sure to sift it to remove any lumps) sugar
and vanilla. Start to knead then add the salt, continue to knead for
about 8 to 10 minutes.
Add the nuts and the chocolate chips if using, knead 1 minute just to
combine. Cover the bowl and let sit 30 minutes.
Move the dough to a lightly floured flat surface and pat into a
rectangle, then fold the top down to meet the middle then bring the
bottom over the top (to form an envelope), turn the dough 90 degrees
and repeat the folding. Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a
lightly greased bowl turning the dough in the bowl to lightly cover
in oil, cover and let rise in a warm draft free area until doubled,
approximately 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
Remove the dough from the bowl to a lightly floured flat surface and
again flatten with the palm of your hand, fold the dough in half,
cover and let sit 15 minutes.
Reshape the dough into your desired loaf shape, place it on a
parchment paper lined cookie sheet, cover and let rise 1 hour.
Pre-heat oven to 480F (250C) for 30 to 35 minutes, then reduce the
heat to 430F (225 C) before placing the bread in the oven.
Score the dough, then spray or sprinkle with water and bake for
approximately 10 minutes, reduce the oven again to 350F (180C) and
bake for approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Once the dough is baked move
immediately to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
