Chocolate sourdough swirl

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 700 grams of flour
• 1 egg
• 3 egg yolk
• 110 grams of sugar
• 100 grams of butter
• 9 grams of salt
• 150 grams of sourdough

Filling:

• 60 grams of coca powder
• 100 grams of sugar
• Butter

Egg wash:

• 1 egg

Mix the milk, eggs and sugar, sift the flour  to it. Knead the dough well, and add the salt when your dough already come together, knead it about  10 minutes, cover the bowl and place it in a warm place for 30 minutes rest. Than add the soft butter to it, knead it well, leave it for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes knead it again. Now we leave the dough to rest for 1 hour.  After 1 hour gently roll the dough out, be careful not to brake those little air bubble that has already formed. Once it’s rolled out fold it like a letter, than fold it again from the other side as well. You can put it back to the bowl, cover it and leave it again for  1 hour in a warm place. If it’s cold in your house you can put it in the oven an place a hot water bottle near it.

 After 1 hour repeat the previous step, roll-fold-cover and rest again but for 90 minutes now. Mix the coca powder with the sugar.

When the 90 minutes passed we roll out the dough, brush it with melted butter and sprinkle with the coca – sugar mixture, sprinkle with some melted butter and a little bit of water. 

To make the little swirl we role one side of the dough till the middle than roll the other side to the middle as well. Carefully turn the rolled dough over, with a help of a sharp knife cut into equal parts. 

Put the little swirls into an already lined baking pan. If  you want to bake them the same day brush them with the egg was and leave it to improve for 3-4 hours. After 3 hours brush them with the egg wash again and they are good to go to the oven.

If you want to bake them the next day cover with cling film and put them in the fridge. It’s important to leave the swirls at least 30 minutes to come to room temperature before you start to bake them. Brush them with an egg wash.

Bake the swirls at 215 Celsius for 15 minutes than take the heat down to 205 Celsius and bake for another 4-5 minutes.

Enjoy!!!
