  • 1 egg

Filling

  • 3 tbsp softened butter
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ⅓ cup sugar

Icing

  • 100gr chocolate
  • 100ml cream

Instructions

Dough

  1. In a large mixing bowl add in your 2 cups of flour, cocoa, yeast and sugar and mix using a spatula.
  2. Then add in your water, melted butter and egg. Mix until a thick mixture is formed for about 2 minutes.

Assembly
