Ingredients
Method
Dough Preparation
- In a bowl, combine lukewarm milk and water. Add yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt together.
- Add the melted butter and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and cover for about 1 hour, until doubled in size.
Filling Preparation
- In a small bowl, combine warmed heavy whipping cream and chocolate chips. Stir until melted and smooth.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
Assembly
- Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle.
- Spread the chocolate filling evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the top.
- Roll tightly from one edge to the other. Cut into 12 rolls.
Baking
- Place rolls in a greased baking dish. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Meringue Topping
- While the rolls are baking, beat the egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt together until stiff peaks form.
- Add the vanilla extract and beat until incorporated.
Finalizing Rolls
- Spread the meringue over the baked rolls.
- Use a kitchen torch to toast the meringue lightly or broil for a few minutes, watching closely.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For best results, do not make the meringue too early. Use a kitchen torch for best results, or broil under the oven if unavailable.
