CHOCOLATE RING

I love baking bread, it is soothing and great satisfaction for me and not to mention the end result is so much better than buying ones at the store.

 Baked this Chocolate Ring  for our breakfast, it's quite similar to cinnamon rolls but for this bread we shaped into ring by joining the two ends, sprinkle with chocolate rice or chocolate chip and sugar after spreading the butter. It tasted wonderful and mildly sweet taste. Stay tuned for my next baking project..
