    #Chocolate Chip Brioche
    *Makes one brioche*

    1 package active dry yeast
    6 tablespoons warm water (105°-115°F.)
    2¾ cups all-purpose flour, divided
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    6 tablespoons butter, softened
    6 tablespoons heavy cream
    4 egg yolks
    ½ of 6-ounce package (½ cup) Nestlé Toll House semi-sweet chocolate morsels
    1 egg, beaten

    In small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside for 10 minutes. Add ¾ cup flour, knead until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap, let rise in warm place for 1 hour. In large bowl, combine remaining 2 cups flour, sugar and salt; make well in center. Add butter, heavy cream and egg yolks to mix until dough forms a ball. On lightly floured board, knead dough until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Knead in yeast mixture. Knead in Nestlé Toll House chocolate morsels. Reserve ¼ of dough; set aside. Form remaining dough into ball; place in buttered 8-inch glass brioche mold.* Make deep depression in center of dough. Roll remaining ¼ of dough into ball. Press into center of dough in mold. Pat topknot to shape evenly. Cover with cloth; let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour). Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush bread with beaten egg. Bake at 350°F. for 40-45 minutes. Cover with foil. Bake 15 minutes longer. Remove from mold; cool on wire rack. Serve warm.

    * *If a metal brioche mold is used, raise oven temperature to 375°F.*
