baking

finished off the dinner roll dough that’s been chilling in the fridge since last week. dipped in egg wash, rolled in topping, 1hr rise, careful egg brush, added sliced garlic, baked at 350F for 25 mins.

This was a while ago, but I made a loaf of challah, and having had success with babka in the past, decided why not. Melted some baking choc and thoroughly mixed in sugar and honey. I actually made two loaves: the one in the pic was the first one. For it I just flattened the logs, spread the chocolate in like peanut butter, then pinched the logs shut (though they split back open during rising, I figured it would look pretty and I Meant To Do That). But for the second loaf, when the chocolate had cooled down, it had basically turned into chocolate play dough! It was remarkable how non-sticky this log of sugar and chocolate became. I guess just go heavy on the sugar, refrigerating it would probably also help, but I just had it sitting on the counter!

apologies if this is counts as a repost, just trying to figure out how crossposting works. i did edit the op with more pics if you already saw it earlier.

pretty happy with these. white bread + 1 flax egg and - less than 1/4 cup water. the ones that are properly coated were dipped in egg wash and then soo gently rolled in the topping.
