Chocolate Babka - A beautiful twisted loaf filled with rich chocolate. ### Ingredients:

For the Dough:
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup whole milk, warmed
3 large eggs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Chocolate Filling:
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Syrup:
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt; mix well.
Add the warmed milk, eggs, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Knead until a smooth dough forms.
Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
For the filling, melt the chocolate with cocoa powder, sugar, and butter until smooth.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface, spread the chocolate filling evenly, and roll it up tightly.
Twist the rolled dough to form a spiral, then place it in a greased loaf pan.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and let the dough rise for another 30 minutes.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
While the Babka is baking, prepare the syrup by boiling water and sugar until dissolved.
Brush the syrup over the warm Babka as soon as it comes out of the oven for a shiny finish.

Once cooled, slice it up and enjoy your homemade Chocolate Babka! Each bite is a celebration of chocolatey goodness, perfect for sharing with friends and family or savoring all by yourself.
