MOCHA BREAD (YEAST BREAD)

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate chips and butter together.
• In the bowl of a standing mixer, mix 4 c flour, salt, brown sugar, yeast and cocoa powder.
• On low speed, slowly add the water and coffee.
• Mix until incorporated, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Add the chocolate/butter mixture and the egg.
• Increase the speed of your mixer to medium, add the remaining flour a couple of tablespoons at a time, until the dough forms a ball and scrapes the sides of the bowl pretty well clean.
• Knead in the mixer for 5 - 7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
• Remove the dough from the bowl, knead briefly on a very lightly floured counter.
• Form the dough into a ball, place it back in the bowl, cover it with a lint free towel and let it rise until doubled in size - 45 minutes to an hour.
