CHOCOLATE CINNAMON ROLL WOOL BREAD



Chocolate Cinnamon Roll Wool Bread image

Wool bread is made with a yeasted dough that's sliced, tightly rolled then stacked in a round baking dish; once the dough proofs and bakes, the bread resembles a roll of wool or thick yarn. While its popularity has continued to grow on social media, wool bread was first introduced by a YouTube video created by the Malaysian food blog "Apron." By taking inspiration from the original method of rolling and shaping, as well as adding our own cinnamon-sugar filling and combination of two flavors of dough, the result is a beautifully swirled wool bread that's as impressive as it is tasty. Serve with a smear of homemade cream cheese icing for a stunning sweet treat.

Time 4h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

One 1/4-ounce packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 2/3 cups bread flour
1/3 cup nonfat milk powder, sifted if needed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the bowls
2 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon bread flour, plus more for dusting
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the springform pan
1 large egg, beaten
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the dough: Microwave 3/4 cup of water in a small microwave-safe bowl or liquid measuring cup until it reaches 100 to 110 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Sprinkle the yeast and 1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar over the top and stir to dissolve. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir together the bread flour, milk powder, salt and the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment until combined. Whisk the melted butter and egg yolks into the yeast mixture, then pour into the stand mixer over the flour mixture. Beat on medium speed until a shaggy dough ball forms. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue to knead until a smooth but slightly sticky ball forms, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir together the cocoa powder and 5 teaspoons of hot water in another small bowl until a thick paste forms; set aside. Split the dough in half and place one half in a medium bowl greased with butter, turning to coat; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Return the other half of dough to the stand mixer and add the cocoa powder mixture. Beat on medium speed until the cocoa is thoroughly mixed into the dough. Transfer the chocolate dough to another buttered medium bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • For filling and finishing: Mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and flour in a small bowl until evenly combined; set aside.
  • Punch down both the plain and chocolate proofed doughs, then cut each into 6 equal portions (12 total pieces). Dust a clean work surface lightly with flour. Use a rolling pin to roll 1 piece of plain dough and 1 piece of chocolate dough into two long rectangles, about 4 inches wide and 8 inches long. Place the chocolate dough directly on top of the plain dough. Using a bench scraper or chef's knife, cut thin strips (about 1/8-inch wide) lengthwise along half of the dough (leave the other half uncut). Spread 1/2 tablespoon of softened butter on the un-cut side of dough, then sprinkle evenly with a heaping 2 teaspoons of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Fold about 1/4 inch of the dough inward on both sides to help hold the cinnamon mixture in, then roll the dough tightly from the uncut end to the sliced-end, making sure to finish with the seam-side down. The result should look like a roll of wool; set aside. Continue with the remaining dough pieces, butter and filling, so there are a total of 6 rolls.
  • Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Place the dough rolls around the perimeter of the pan (they will fit snuggly and should be touching). Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Uncover the proofed bread and brush with the beaten egg. Bake until puffed, golden brown and the bread reaches an internal temperature of 190 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes in the pan, then run an offset spatula around the edge. Unlock the springform pan and unmold the bread. The bread can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
  • For the cream cheese icing: Beat the cream cheese and butter with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla and beat until combined. Cover and keep at room temperature until ready to serve. Cut the bread into slices and serve with a smear of cream cheese frosting.

CHOCOLATE-BRANDY BREAD PUDDING WITH CINNAMON WHIPPED CREAM



Chocolate-Brandy Bread Pudding With Cinnamon Whipped Cream image

Another chocolate bread pudding to add to my collection. Made it for Thanksgiving dessert and it was a huge hit. The best thing is that cinnamon whipped cream tastes great with pumpkin and apple pie too! This one is not quite as decadent as the dark chocolate version I have posted. Note: I used a loaf of Hawaiian sweet bread but any quality white or sweet bread will do.

CHOCOLATE-PRALINE BREAD PUDDING WITH CINNAMON CREAM



Chocolate-Praline Bread Pudding with Cinnamon Cream image

Categories     Bread     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Kosher     Cinnamon     Simmer

Yield serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

Praline
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
3/4 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans
Pudding
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 cups whole milk
3 large eggs plus 3 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
6 cups crustless day-old bread, in 1-inch cubes
Cinnamon Cream
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the praline: Lightly oil a baking sheet or line it with a silicone baking mat. Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and cook over moderate heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Continue cooking without stirring until the sugar syrup turns to dark caramel, 5 to 7 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally and gently so the caramel darkens evenly. Monitor the caramel closely during the final moments as it can quickly go from perfect to burnt. Work cautiously, as hot caramel can cause a nasty burn.
  • Stir in the pecans, then immediately pour the hot praline onto the prepared baking sheet in a thin, even layer. Let cool until hard, then break into small pieces.
  • For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly butter a 9-inch square pan.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the cream to a simmer. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Put half of the chopped chocolate in a large bowl and pour the hot cream over it. Whisk until smooth.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and egg yolks, granulated sugar, and salt until well blended. Add to the melted chocolate mixture and whisk well.
  • Add the bread cubes and allow them to soak for about 30 minutes, pushing them down into the liquid occasionally. Fold in the remaining chopped chocolate. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the praline over the surface. Place the pan in a larger roasting pan and add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the smaller pan. Bake until the pudding is firm to the touch, about 45 minutes. Remove the smaller pan from the water bath and let the pudding cool for at least 30 minutes.
  • For the cream: In a bowl, with a whisk or electric beaters, whip together the cream, confectioners' sugar, and cinnamon to soft peaks.
  • To serve, cut the pudding into 12 pieces. Serve warm, accompanied by a dollop of cinnamon cream.

CARAMELIZED BREAD PUDDING WITH CHOCOLATE & CINNAMON



Caramelized Bread Pudding With Chocolate & Cinnamon image

This is a layered custardy bread pudding from the James Beard-nominated LA chef, Suzanne Goin. She has been making it for 20 years. "Use just a single layer of brioche, which creates a crispy crust but won't absorb all the rich, silky custard underneath. Once you break through the caramelized, toasty top layer and dig down through the luscious custard, a treasure of melted chocolate awaits you at the bottom." Recipe was printed in her excellent cookbook, "Sunday Suppers at Lucques: Seasonal Recipes from Market to Table"

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 extra-large eggs
2 extra-large egg yolks
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream

  • Whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add the cream, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, whisking to combine well.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate over the bottom of a 9-by-9-inch (or equivalent) baking dish. Arrange the brioche, buttered side up, with slices overlapping just slightly, on the chocolate (there should be just a single layer of bread). Pour the custard over the bread, pressing down with your fingers to make sure the bread soaks it up. Place the bread pudding in a roasting pan, and pour warm water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the pudding dish. Bake about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until the custard is set and the bread puffs up slightly. The pudding will be springy to the touch.
  • Let the bread pudding cool at least 10 minutes.
  • If you have a kitchen blowtorch, sprinkle the sugar over the top, and torch to brown and caramelize. If you don't have a torch, You run the pudding under the broiler to caramelize, but be careful not to curdle the custard underneath. Serve the bread pudding from the baking dish at the table, using a big spoon.
