This Babka inspired Choco bread is perfect for breakfast or snacking.
It is puffed by using yeast and egg. It is so soft and airy that it will melt in your mouth when you take each bite.
It can be used as a fruits sandwich by using cream cheese and fresh fruits or it can be easily eaten with soft butter.
