  • 3 sticks (1 and 1/2 cups) margarine (use soy-free, if needed)

  • 3 eggs

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/8 cup oil

Directions

Prepare the Dough

1.

Proof yeast in one teaspoon sugar and one cup water. Mix together with all dough ingredients except the oil.

2.

Knead well to form a dough. It may need more water or flour, depending on the weather. If the dough is too sticky, add another one or two cups of flour.

3.

Add the oil at the end to gather the dough together. Cover and leave in a warm place until the dough doubles in size. (Approximatly one hour)

4.

Divide dough into five or six pieces.

Shape and Bake

1.

Roll one piece of dough into a rectangle. Spread with margarine (quite thick). Mix sugar and cocoa together and spread on top. Roll dough jelly-roll style. Place in a 9-inch loaf tin and spread with the 1/4 stick margarine. Repeat with remaining dough.

2.

Prick dough with fork and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit (convection) or 350 degrees Fahrenheit (non-convection) for 50 minutes.
