      Title: Best Basic Challah - Part 2
 Categories: Breads
      Yield: 48 Servings
 
           DIRECTIONS CONTINUE
 
  CHOCOLATE CHALLAH: Prepare as above, except substitute
  2/3 cup packed brown sugar for the honey and stir 1/2 cup
  unsweetened cocoa powder and 2 teaspoons instant espresso
  coffee powder into 2 cups of the flour before adding to
  the yeast mixture (you will use less flour during
  kneading).
  
  To shape stacked loaves, divide dough into three
  portions. Remove one-fourth of the dough from each
  portion; divide each fourth into thirds (nine small
  portions total). Gently roll each third into a
  15-inch-long rope. Braid three ropes at a time to make
  three small braids; cover and set aside. Divide the
  remaining three portions of dough into thirds (nine large
  portions total). Gently roll each third into an
  18-inch-long rope. Braid three ropes at a time to make
  three large braids. For each stacked loaf, brush a large
  braid with some of the egg mixture; top with a small
  braid, pressing gently. Let rise as directed. Brush with
  the remaining egg mixture; bake as directed. Makes 3
  loaves (16 servings each).
  
  MINI CINNAMON-SUGAR CHALLAH: Prepare as above. Divide
  dough into three portions. Use two of the portions to
  shape stacked loaves as directed for Chocolate Challah.
  Continue as directed.
  
  Use the remaining portion of dough to shape mini loaves:
  On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 24x7-inch
  rectangle. Using a pizza cutter, cut rectangle into
  forty-eight 7x1/2-inch strips. Braid three strips at a
  time to make 16 mini loaves. Let rise as directed, omit
  brushing with egg mixture, and bake for 15 to 18 minutes
  or until golden brown. Brush with 1 tablespoon melted
  butter and sprinkle with a mixture of 2 tablespoons sugar
  and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Serve warm. Makes 16
  mini loaves plus 2 stacked loaves (16 servings each).
  
  VANILLA-SCENTED CHALLAH: Prepare as above, except use 3/4
  cup sugar instead of the honey. Split 1 vanilla bean
  lengthwise and scrape out seeds; add vanilla seeds to the
  yeast mixture. Continue as directed.
  
  PARMESAN CHALLAH: Prepare as above. To shape
  single-braided loaves, divide dough into three portions.
  Divide each portion into thirds (nine portions total).
  Gently roll each third into an 18-inch-long rope. Brush
  ropes with 3 tablespoons olive oil and roll in 1 cup
  finely shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Braid three
  ropes at a time to make three loaves. Continue as
  directed, except omit brushing with egg mixture.
  
  Makes 3 single-braided loaves (16 servings each).
  
  Makes: 48 servings
