Frequently Asked Questions:
Chocolate Yeast Cake Recipe
Should I pour the syrup on the cake after baking it?
Yes, preferably while the cake is still hot.
How should I form the cake’s shape?
Here are the exact steps:
- Roll the dough out into a thin sheet, then spread the filling all over it.
- Roll the sheet into a roll, then cut the roll lengthwise into two halves.
- Turn the strands upwards so that the filling is facing up, then twist the two halves together.
- The final shape should be screw-like, which gives the cake its crunchy texture.
