Babka is the Jewish name for krantz, a sweet braided brioche that is usually served as a breakfast dessert or even for an afternoon tea. There are numerous recipes and even more versions and flavors in which babka is made. The preparation time is really short, a bit less so are the rising times, but it will be enough to prepare this dessert in the evening to bake it in the morning, or even better, prepare it during the day to bake it in the evening: the next morning at breakfast you will have a sweet surprise, preceded by the smell of chocolate that will linger in the air.
