A copycat recipe for the famous dark bread served at Outback Steakhouse.

INGREDIENTS

- Water - Sugar - Active dry yeast - Bread flour - Whole wheat flour - Cocoa powder - Instant coffee granules - Salt - Butter - Honey

Proof the yeast: measure the warm water into a two-cup or larger measure. Add the sugar and yeast. Stir to dissolve. Within 5 minutes the yeast should have begun to bubble and grow.

1

While the yeast proofs, mix the flours, cocoa, coffee, and salt in a large bowl. Stir together with a whisk. Using your fingers, mix the softened butter into the flour mixture.

2

Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and add the honey, molasses, and yeast-water mixture. Stir from the middle, bringing the dry ingredients gradually into the wet.

3

Turn the rough dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes adding small amounts of flour to the kneading surface only if needed.
