One of the things I like about my Zojirushi bread machine is that I can make filled yeast bread recipes easily with the dough cycle. This chocolate chip yeast bread is a perfect example. The Zojirushi machine does all the hard work. I just roll out the dough and fill it.

Chocolate Chip Yeast Bread
- 1/2 cup skim milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Tbsp. butter, cut up into small pieces
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 cups all-purpose bread flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1-1/2 tsp. active dry yeast or bread machine yeast
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Put first ten ingredients in bread machine in order listed by manufacturer (for Zojirushi, add liquid ingredients first, then seasonings, then flour, then yeast). Set it on dough cycle. When the dough cycle is complete, remove dough and punch it down. Cover and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Spray two loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray. Divide the dough in half. Roll each half out into a 10 x 7 rectangle. Sprinkle half the chocolate chips over dough. Roll up, jelly-roll style. Lay in loaf pan, seam side down. Repeat with second half of dough. Cover dough with towels and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until nearly doubled.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake bread 30 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped lightly.
Makes 12 slices.
