| 1. Preheat the oven to 350 and grease two loaf pans. | 2. To make chocolate filling: | 3. In the bowl of a food processor (I use a mini-prep for this), chop the broken up chocolate, cinnamon and sugar until the mixture looks coarse and sandy. If you do not have a food processor, simply chop the chocolate finely and mix with cinnamon and sugar. | 4. Cut in the butter or margarine with a fork. | 5. To make streusel: | 6. In a medium bowl, combine the confectioner's sugar and flour, then cut in the butter or margarine until it resembles coarse crumbs. | 7. To assemble: | 8. Roll out the dough as thinly as possible on a lightly floured surface to form a 15x4 inch rectangle (the thinner you roll out the dough, the greater the swirl effect inside). | 9. Sprinkle the dough evenly with the filling then roll up tightly lengthwise so that you are left with a long log. Seal the seam if you can. | 10. To create the swirl: fold the log in half (it should look like a squished letter 'U') and then twist the 'U' a few times so it looks like a twisted rope. | 11. Immediately place the shaped loaf into a greased loaf pan and set aside to rise for 30 min or so. | 12. Brush the loaves with the egg wash, then sprinkle heavily with the streusel topping. | 13. Place the loaves on a baking sheet (never bake without something underneath - as the cake rises, the streusel can tumble out of the pan onto the oven floor, creating a smoky mess) and bake for 30-40 min, depending on the size of your loaves. They should be a deep golden brown on top. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
