Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your bread. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread in a loaf pan that has been greased and floured. This will prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep for up to 3 days.
