07:32
For the dough...
½ cup milk, tepid
½ cup water, tepid
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons butter
3 ½ cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon salt
For the filling...
Chocolate spread
100g Chopped Hazelnuts
To make...
Get all your butter,
eggs and milk out of the fridge before you make the dough to make
sure they are room temperature. Mix all the ingredients together
using a electric mixer (dough hook/low speed) or add them to a bread
maker and set to dough and skip to the next step. Knead the dough for
a couple of minutes and rest for 30mins somewhere warm.
Spilt the dough into
eight equal sections using a pizza cutter. Take one section roll into
a ball and roll out on a floured surface until a long oblong shape.
Spread the chocolate on the top of the dough, leaving a 1cm uncovered
around the edges. Sprinkle a handful of hazelnuts on top of the
chocolate.
Starting from one of
the long sides, roll up the dough and pinch the edges together to
seal it shut.
Take your pizza cutter
and cut down the middle of the roll, leaving 2cm at the top edge.
Plait the two pieces together and bend into a circle push the two
edges together. Repeat for the other pieces of dough until you have 8
twists.
Add to a greased baking
tray and leave to prove for 20mins.
Preheat the oven to
200oC and bake the twists for 20mins or until they are golden.
Transfer to a wire rack, to allow to cool but they are best eaten
warm.
