How to make CHOCOLATE PASKA BREAD MADE WITH CAKE DOUGH:

Cake Dough

• We start with the leaven. Warm (not hot) milk is mixed with flour, sugar and crushed yeast. Leave to rest for 10-15 minutes.
• Sift the cake flour into a bowl and make a well. Add the two yolks, half of the whole egg, add the sour cream, sugar and mix well together.
• Heat the milk a bit until it becomes warm (not hot).
• Put the leaven in the flour well, then add the yolk mixture and finally the milk. Start kneading the dough until you get a fairly homogeneous composition.
• Add salt, grated orange peel and continue to knead until it is well homogenized.
• At the end, add the soft butter and continue to knead a little until you get an elastic dough that does not stick to your hands. If the dough is too sticky, add a spoonful of flour and knead again until homogeneous.
• We cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel, and leave it to rise for an hour, in a warm place - in the oven with the door closed.
• Make the cake dough with the sponge cake recipe from here, but use half the quantity.
• Let it rise for an hour until it doubles in volume.

Cream

• Melt the dark chocolate over a low heat with the sweet cream and coffee.
• Mix the cream cheese with the sugar and vanilla sugar.
• Beat the eggs lightly with a pinch of salt.
• Add the eggs to the cream cheese and mix well until smooth.
• Slowly dribble in the grated and melted chocolate. Mix well.
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
• Prepare a cake pan with removable sides.
• Roll out the cake dough into a round shape larger than the diameter of the pan.
• Place the dough in the pan, covering the bottom and all the way up the sides.
• Pour the cream cheese and chocolate into the pan. Level.
• Brush the dough with beaten egg.
• Place the pan in the heated oven.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes, until it is brown around the edges.
• Remove from the oven and leave on a cooling tray.
• Divide up the cake as soon as it has cooled completely.
• Serve it with a good appetite and good mood!
