Chocolate Swirl Babka

June 12, 2020 by Richard Tango-Lowy
DON'T look like much yet. SLACK DOUGH BABKA with a chocolate cinnamon butter swirl. The chocolate's my test batch of Ecuador 60%, fresh from the new melanger. Ready at 1pm; you can buy it on our website. #chocolatier #bread #babka #bean-to-bread-chocolate.

We’re playing with iterations on BABKA this month. I make with with our own slack dough–long proof, plenty of eggs, but no dairy. The chocolate’s my test batch of Ecuador 60%, fresh from the new melanger and blended with cinnamon, brown sugar, and small-farm butter.
