Ingredients
270 g flour (560 ml)
2 ml salt
25 ml sugar
10 g Anchor instant dry yeast
60 g margarine / butter
150 ml lukewarm water
2 egg (beaten)
Filling
100 g baking chocolate
10 ml grated orange rind
40 g almonds
Method
Mix flour, salt and sugar and add the yeast
Rub the margarine into the flour mixture.
Add the egg and enough lukewarm water to form a soft dough
Knead dough well until smooth and elastic. Leave to rise.
Knock down. Roll into a 25 cm x 30cm rectangle.
Sprinkle the chocolate, orange rind and almonds evenly over the dough.
Roll the dough up into a roll, starting from the wide side. Cut the roll in half, lengthwise, using a sharp knife. Turn each half cut upside up. Carefully twist the halves together, keeping the cut side up, to expose the filling. Pinch ends well together.
Place in a greased baking sheet and allow to rise until double in volume
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 160 C and bake for further 20 minutes.
