Ingredients :
- 4 1/2 to 5 C flour total
- 1/2 C sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp yeast
- 3/4 C milk
- 1/2 C water
- 1/2 C shortening
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 C cocoa powder
- 1/2 C or so sugar for filling
- 1 stick softened butter
Method :
- Stir together 1 3/4 C of the flour, sugar and yeast, set aside
- Heat milk, water and shortening until warm
- Stir into flour mixture, stir well, then add eggs and beat for 3 minutes, then add salt and stir
- Stir in remaining flour 1 cup at a time until you get a soft kinda sticky dough
- Knead a few minutes until smooth, then cover and let rest for 20 minutes
- On floured surface, roll dough out to 1/2 inch thickness
- Smear the butter, all the way to the edges, then sprinkle the cocoa powder on the butter, then sprinkle with a generous amount of sugar. At this point you can also sprinkle with chocolate chips
- Roll tightly then cut into 2 inch slices
- Arrange not quite touching in an ungreased 9x13 pan, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 40 to 60 minutes
- Bake in preheated 350 oven for about 20 minutes, until set and slightly springy
- Invert on to plate right away, and let cool a little before frosting. I recommend a chocolate glaze of powdered sugar, cocoa, vanilla and splash of milk
