Chocolate Cinnamon Rolls – Chocobon
Ingredients:
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter/margarine
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
3 1/2 -4 cups all-purpose flour
FILLING:
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
50gm cooking chocolate
1/3 cup butter, softened
ICING:
1 cup icing sugar
1/3 cup cream cheese
1-1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract(optional)
2-3 tablespoons milk
Method:
- Warm the milk in until it just starts to boil, then remove from heat. Mix in the butter; stir until melted.
- Add water and wait for the mixture to reach room temperature.
- In a large bowl, mix the milk mixture, yeast, white sugar, salt and eggs till sugar dissolves.
- Add flour (save 1cup for kneading) very slowly and stir well to combine.
- Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. When the dough has been mixed together, take it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead. Keep sprinkling the remaining flour and knead until smooth and elastic. (You can use a dough Kneading machine as well)
- Cover with a greased plastic film and leave for half an hour.
- Meanwhile, mix brown sugar, cocoa powder, melter cooking chocolate and cinnamon together and add butter in it (i had granulated brown sugar so I had grinded it a bit).
- Now, take your dough, generously sprinkle flour on your work surface and using a roller pin gently roll it into a rectangle of around 12X9 inches.
- Spread a layer of the cinnamon mixture leaving the 1/1inches at the top and bottom to seal.
- Next, roll the sheet gently and keep tucking the sides to get a uniform cylinder. Seal with a little milk. Using a sharp knife cut your rolls into 12-14pieces of around 2 inches thick, which will depend on your cylinder size.
- Place them widely spaced in a greased pan (preferably a rectangular pan) and cover with plastic film and leave it to rise till size doubles.
- Preheat oven to around 180 degrees and bring down to 160C. Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes. After 15 minutes have been passed keep a check by poking a toothpick in the center and turned golden.
- While its baking, make frosting; beat icing sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla. Add milk gradually until frosting reaches a good creamy consistency.
- Spread over warm cinnamon rolls.
