Hello fellow bakers! It is Fantastic Bake Along time:). Yea! I am so excited for this month’s Bake. We are going to be baking Chili/Chocolate Bread by this month’s star baker, Tina from Kristabella’s Hodgepodge .
We hope YOU will join us! Here is how:
Tina’s recipe of Chili/Chocolate Bread is so much like Tina herself. She is so fun! She crochets beautiful shawls and scarves, and shares a Sunday chuckle each week. Head over and check out her blog. I’m sure you will love it!❤️
I’m ready to Bake, how about you? So… drum roll please!

Chili/Chocolate Bread Recipe by Tina @ Kristabella’s Hodgepodge
For a small loaf (1 lb.)
- 3/4 c Milk, room temperature
- 1/4c Unsalted Butter, room temperature, 1/2″ pieces
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2tbs Granulated Sugar
- 2 1/4c Bread Flour
- 1 1/2tsp Chili Powder
- 1 1/2tsp Yeast, active dry, instant, or bread machine
- 1c Chocolate Chips
Select the ‘Basic/White’ program, 1 lb., and your desired crust color, and start the machine. When the mix-in tone sounds, add 1 cup chocolate chips.
Note: The Ghirardelli chips have a very intense chocolate taste. The Chili therefore is just an aftertaste…a mild ‘burn’. To intensify the Chili flavor you might wanna use Milk Chocolate Chips. 😊
Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
There you have it! — Doesn’t it sound delicious? This recipe is for a bread machine, but I will be doubling the recipe, using my Kitchenaid, and oven.

I am so excited to baking with you again, and try this SWEET Bread! Thank you Tina for the recipe:). See you Saturday as I eat a slice of this spicy bread!
Count me in!!! I put some cayenne in a chocolate cake once and it was delicous! I don’t have a bread machine but it’s easy enough to adapt to hand mixing/kneading!! I can’t wait to see everyone’s yummy spicy sweet bread!! 😀
