Dough ingredients
2 ¼ cups / 300 g of bread flour
130 ml / 4,39 oz warm milk
2 g / 0,06 oz of dry yeast
50 g / 1,75 oz of sugar
5 g / 0,18 oz of salt
30 ml / 1,05 oz of melted butter
Filling ingredients
200 g / 7,05 oz of walnuts (your choice)
50 ml / 1,75 oz of melted butter
50 g / 1,75 oz of powdered sugar
1 spoon of cocoa powder
1 egg
2-3 tablespoons of milk
20 ml / 0,70 oz melted butter for greasing.
Method of preparation.
Put warm milk, sugar, egg and yeast in a bowl. Mix well and leave for 15 minutes to activate the yeast.
After 15 minutes, add flour and salt.
Knead well for 5 minutes, cover with a towel and let rise for an hour. After an hour, add the melted butter and knead until the butter is incorporated into the dough. Cover with a towel and let rise for 3 hours.
After the dough has doubled in volume, prepare the nuts.
Chop the nuts (in a food processor). Place the chopped walnuts in a deep bowl and add powdered sugar, melted butter, cocoa, egg and milk to them and mix well.
Spread the dough on a towel (to use less flour, use a towel) and stretch it with a rolling pin until it reaches 3-4 millimeters.
Put the walnut on top and spread carefully so as not to break the dough. Roll up and place in the baking pan (8.5 X 4.3 X Inches) (21.5 X 11 X 5.5 cm)
Cover and let rise for one hour.
After it has increased in volume, brush it with melted butter and bake it in a preheated oven at 180 C / 350 F for 1 hour (until it turns brown on top)
