Monkey Bread With Hazelnut Chocolate Swirl Recipes

Steps:

• In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough-hook attachment, combine yeast, 1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees), and pinch of granulated sugar. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Beat on low speed while adding 1 stick (1/2 cup) melted butter, milk, salt, remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and eggs. Slowly add flour while beating until mixture just comes together. Increase speed to medium-high; beat until dough is soft and elastic, 5 minutes.
• Lightly brush a large bowl with butter. Place dough in bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm place and let rise until dough doubles in size, 1 to 2 hours (or refrigerate overnight).
• Generously butter a 10-inch Bundt pan. Drizzle bottom with 1/4 cup hazelnut-chocolate spread. Place remaining 1 stick melted butter in a bowl. In another bowl, stir together brown sugar and cinnamon.
• Deflate dough; divide into quarters. Working with one piece of dough at a time, and keeping remaining pieces covered in plastic, cut off 1-inch pieces with a sharp knife; roll into balls. Coat each in melted butter, then roll in sugar mixture; place in prepared pan. Drizzle evenly with 1/4 cup hazelnut-chocolate spread. Repeat 3 more times. Cover with plastic; let stand in a warm place until doubled in bulk, 60 to 90 minutes. (You can also refrigerate the assembled pan overnight; bring to room temperature 1 hour before baking.)
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until bread feels firm when pressed lightly and is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool in pan 5 minutes; invert onto a serving plate and let cool completely. (If any pieces stick to pan, just pull out and arrange back in place.) To serve, pull apart, or cut into slices with a serrated knife.
