Great babka or kokosh recipe – best of all, no unhealthy margarine or shortening!

Ingredients

Dough

  • 5 pounds flour

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 4 ounces yeast

  • 1 and 1/2 cups oil

  • 2 whole eggs plus 8 yolks

Filling

  • 2 packages instant chocolate pudding

  • oil, for smearing dough

  • 1 egg, for glazing

Directions

Prepare the Babka

1.

Combine all dough ingredients in a large mixer bowl, mix well. Cover bowl and let rise for one hour.

2.

In a separate bowl, combine cocoa, sugars, and pudding mix for filling; mix well.

3.

Divide dough into eight equal parts. Working with one piece at a time, roll out dough into a rectangle. Smear with a thin layer of oil and sprinkle with filling. Roll up dough jellyroll style.

4.

Twist two rolls together, pinching ends; place in large, greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise 45 minutes.

5.

Brush with beaten egg. Bake for 40–45 minutes in oven preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes:

Remember to take challah from your dough. (Read more about hafrashat challah.)
