  • Form the Roll: Pinch the edges of the dough to seal, and then place the roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, seam-side down. You can also shape it into a spiral if you prefer.
  • Second Rise: Cover the roll with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for an additional 20-30 minutes.

    • Step 4: Bake the Roll

    1. Bake the Roll: Place the roll in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until it turns golden brown on top and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

    Step 5: Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle

    1. Melt the Chocolate: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
    2. Add Honey (Optional): Stir in 1 teaspoon of honey to add a touch of sweetness to the chocolate drizzle.

    Step 6: Drizzle the Chocolate and Serve

    1. Drizzle the Chocolate: Once the poppy seed roll has cooled slightly, drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the top of the roll in a zigzag pattern.
    2. Serve: Slice the roll into thick pieces and serve. Enjoy the combination of soft, fluffy dough, nutty poppy seeds, sweet honey, and rich chocolate!
