All that's left of a chocolate babka
We had some friends over for brunch the other morning and I was incredibly busy from around 6am on, baking bialys, russian coffee cake and this chocolate babka. Fortunately, they all came out of the oven in the nick of time and all got demolished by our ravening friends -- enough to warm the cockles of any baker's heart. Thought any and all might be interested in seeing what's left of a 2+ pound chocolate babka. The stuff on the top is streusel -- equal quantities of butter, sugar, flour by weight.
