Prep. Time:

Total Time:

Ingredients:

1 pkg. dry yeast
1/2 cup warm milk (105 to 115 °F)
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour, divided
3 tbsp. sugar
3 tbsp. cocoa
1 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. shortening, melted
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
Vegetable oil, as needed

Directions:

Dissolve yeast in warm milk; let stand 5 minutes.

Sift together 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, cocoa, and salt; set aside.

Combine dissolved yeast, egg, shortening, pecans, and vanilla; mix well. Gradually add flour mixture to make a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a surface sprinkled with remaining 1/2 cup flour. Knead 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°F), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down. Turn out onto a floured surface, and shape into a loaf. Place in a greased 7-1/2x3x2-inch loaf pan. Brush top with oil; cover and repeat rising procedure 1 hour. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove bread from pan immediately. Cool on wire rack.
