Chocolate and Halloween seem to go together beautifully. This year, I decided to create my very own Halloween version of my classic Challah. My Challah-ween Challah is rich and cholatey and a fun recipe to include the kids on. They will love not only braiding this decadent dough, they will also have a great time decorating it with Halloween sprinkles. Have fun and Happy Challah-ween!
