Chocolate Hazelnut Babka

"This Chocolate Hazelnut Babka is filled with gooey melted chocolate and crunchy hazelnuts. It’s the perfect Easter treat! Growing up in the South, I’d never really heard of babka until I moved to the North. Sure, I’d seen the Seinfeld episode where Jerry and Elaine go to the bakery to buy a chocolate babka, only to see the last one sold to the customers right in front of them. They ended up settling for the cinnamon babka, which Jerry called a “lesser babka.” But, I didn’t fully understand the humor of this situation until I moved to New York. That’s when I realized that babkas may as well be the state’s official bread…especially in the Spring. These sweet loaves of bread literally show up everywhere in the weeks leading up to Easter!"

This Chocolate Hazelnut Babka Bread sounds so good I have to try it. I was amazed to read that it has to set in the frig over night. I think this will make a fluffy tender bread fulled with Chocolate and Hazelnut will be to die for. I live in Michigan and have never heard of this one but will bring it to our Easter brunch. I think I found a new favorite bread. Thank you so much for sharing this free recipe.
