Chocolate Bread Recipe

I am experimenting with different types of ingredients to go with my home made bread. One of it is chocolate and brown sugar. The result turn out quite good and my little daughter loves the chocolate bread so much. For a little aroma, I added in some vanilla essence. Vanilla essence is one of the essential ingredients in chocolate based food. I ended up with some extra dough and I used them to make sausage bread by sticking some smoked sausage on the flatten dough.

Ingredients
Flour, 4 cups
Dry yeast, 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Sugar, 3 table spoons
Brown sugar, 2 table spoon
Cooking chocolate, ½ cup, cut into small chips
Vanilla Essence, 1 teaspoon
Shortening, 2 tablespoons
Butter, 2 tablespoons
Egg, 1 pc

Mix flour, yeast, salt, sugar, shortening and butter. Add some water and make it into dough. Knead the dough for around 15 minutes. Leave it aside for around 2 hours. Put one layer of the dough in to the bread pan. Sprinkle the chocolates, brown sugar and vanilla essence mixture on the dough. Put another layer of dough in to the bread pan. Again, sprinkle the chocolate, brown sugar and vanilla mixture on it. Keep on doing this until you fill up the bread pan up to around 75 %. Leave the bread dough aside to proof for another 20 minutes. Brush the top of the dough with eggs. Bake the bread dough in preheated oven at 200 Dec C for 15 minutes.
