Chocolate Marble Bread Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt. In a saucepan, heat milk and butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat until moistened. Add eggs, beat on low speed for 30 seconds; beat on high for 3 minutes. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Divide dough into thirds. Knead cocoa into one-third of the dough (this may take 5-6 minutes). Shape into a ball. Shape remaining two-thirds dough into one ball. Place each ball in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/4 hours. , Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface.; cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll white dough into a 20x10-in. rectangle; repeat with chocolate dough. Place chocolate layer on top of white layer. , Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; press edges to seal seam. Cut into 20 slices; place in a greased 10-in. tube pan in about three layers. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30-40 minutes. , Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pan immediately; cool on a wire rack. For glaze, combine sugar and milk; drizzle over bread. Sprinkle with walnuts.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8 1/2-by-4-by-2 1/2-inch loaf pan; dust with flour, tapping out excess. Sift flour, salt, and baking powder into a medium bowl.
• Melt 5 ounces chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
• Put butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sugar; raise speed to medium. Cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl. Mix in eggs, 1 at a time. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in three batches, alternating with two batches of milk. Mix until just combined.
• Pour half of batter into melted chocolate; stir well. Alternating between remaining plain batter and the chocolate batter, drop large spoonfuls of batter into the prepared pan. When pan is filled, use a table knife to cut through mixture with a swirling motion.
• Bake until a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 1 hour. (If bread browns too quickly, tent with foil.) Let bread cool slightly in pan on a wire rack, about 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of bread to loosen; unmold. Let cool completely on rack.
• Make ganache: Put the remaining 3 ounces chocolate in a medium bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until just about to simmer. Pour cream over chocolate; stir until mixture is smooth. Let stand 10 minutes to thicken slightly. Using a small offset spatula, spread ganache over cooled cake; let stand until set, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Prepare boiling water, no need to measure yet. Also, preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mash the banana in a large mixing bowl until relatively smooth. It should take 3 average sized ones, but spoon the mashed 'nanas into a measuring cup to make sure, then return to the mixing bowl. Beat in the sugar, canola oil, milk and vanilla.
• Now add the flour, baking soda and salt and gently mix just to incorporate. It's okay if there is some flour still visible, just be careful not to overmix at this point.
• Scoop one cup of the batter up and transfer it to a separate mixing bowl. Now, in a small tea cup mix the cocoa powder with 3 tablespoons boiling water and stir vigorously with a fork until the chocolate is dissolved. Add this chocolate mixture to the one cup of banana and mix until the chocolate is thoroughly smooth and incorporated.
• Now back to the original plain banana batter; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and mix the batter just until relatively smooth. (Unless your batter is already moist enough, then skip the extra water.).
• Here comes the fun part, it's time to marble! Lightly grease an 8×4 loaf pan. Scoop alternate 1/2 cupfuls of chocolate/banana batter into the loaf pan. Nothing has to be precise here, in fact, the more random, the better. Once all of the batter is in, take a butter knife and swirl it through the batter in circular directions for about 10 seconds.
• Bake for 55 minutes. Use a butter knife to test for doneness. Let cool and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch loaf pan.
• In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk in chocolate and peanut butter chips until combined.
• In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together banana and peanut butter until creamy, about 1 minute.
• Beat in granulated sugar and brown sugar until creamy, about 1 minute.
• Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined.
• Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually beat in flour mixture, alternating with milk, until well combined (about 2 minutes).
• Divide half of the batter into medium bowl; sift in cocoa powder, and beat until combined.
• Alternate spoonfuls of banana batter and chocolate batter into the pan. When all the batter is in the pan, swirl a knife sparingly through the batters to marble them. Sprinkle with additional chocolate and peanut butter chips, if desired.
• Bake for 60-65 minutes or until bread pulls away from pan, is well risen, deep golden brown, and a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs attached. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; run a knife around outer edges and invert onto wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an flour one 10 inch tube pan.
• To make marbling mixture: Combine 1/3 cup of the coca and 1/2 cup of the white sugar and mix well.
• In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff, and set aside.
• In another bowl, cream the butter with 1 cup of the sugar and the brown sugar. Beat in the egg yolks, then the vanilla and sour cream.
• In another bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda. Beat into the creamed mixture. Stir about 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter to lighten it and then fold in the rest gently but thoroughly. Spread about 1/4 of the batter into a greased and floured tube pan and sprinkle with about 1/3 of the cocoa-sugar mixture. Continue repeating layers, ending with the batter. With a knife, lightly swirl the batter and cocoa mixture together
• Bake at 325 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 3/4 hours, or until it tests done with a toothpick. Let cool on a rack. Makes 16 to 20 servings.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Trim the ends of the zucchini, then grate on the large holes of a box grater. You should have about 3 cups (450 G) total.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the brown and granulated sugars, eggs, canola oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla. Fold in the shredded zucchini.
• Pour half of the wet ingredients, about 2 cups, into a medium bowl.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup (125 G)flour, the cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt. Add the cocoa mixture the bowl with half of the zucchini mixture and mix well. Fold in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 1½ cups (185 G) flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and the cinnamon.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the remaining bowl of wet ingredients.
• Grease a 9x5-inch (6 x 12 cm) loaf pan with nonstick spray.
• Using 2 ¼-cup measures, alternate scooping the batters to the prepared pan to create a marbled effect.
• Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 70-80 minutes.
• Let the bread cool for 15 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes. Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
