  • 1/4 c Sugar
  • 3 tb Caraway Seed
  • 2 pk Active Dry Yeast OR

 Directions

Thoroughly mix the rye flour, cocoa, sugar, caraway seeds, yeast, coffee
and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the water, vinegar, molasses, and
oil then beat until smooth. Stir in enough unbleached or bread flour to
make a SOFT dough. Turn onto a floured surface. Knead until smooth and

Punch the dough down and divide in half. Shape each half into a ball and
place in the center of 2 greased 8-inch round cake pans. Cover and let rise
until double in bulk, about 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 40 to 45
minutes, or until done.
