Ingredients

  • 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons chai tea latte mix
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Made three excellent mini loaves. Frosting is amazing. Have to make sure the latte mix dissolves fully in the frosting or it can be gritty. I used Oregon Chai Tea Latte mix which came in individual servings and one packet was perfect for one batch.

I make one regular loaf. My family loved it.

I found the chai tea at our local market, but it was alot cheaper at Trader Joes ($2.99 in So. Ca.). I will use the frosting on many more cakes, cupcakes etc. It was wonderful!

If you have trouble finding the chai tea latte mix, you could make the mix yourself with the Spiced Chai Mix recipe from Taste of Home. http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Spiced-Chai-Mix

Very Delicious. I also thought it was more cake-like than bread so I made 24 cupcakes instead. I suggest doubling the frosting recipe if you do cupcakes. They turned out great and were a hit at work. I will be making these again for sure.

Found this magazine at a garage sale, and decided to try them.. my daughter says they are VERY close to her grandmas favorite chocolate cake!

Definitely more of a cake than bread. I did not think it had enough chai flavor. As chocolate cake it had great flavor and nice crumb. I will keep looking for a bread recipe. Did make 4 mini-loaves.

Made 28 for Christmas gifts for employees, teachers and friends. Great recipe because it makes 3 mini loaves. Taste is outstanding and a bit exotic due to the chai tea mix. LOVE IT

Loved it! Smelled so heavenly while baking! Love chai and chocolate, so this was a perfect combo for me!

I used the McCormick chai seasoning that my grocer now discontinued. I had to cut it in 1/2 because it would have been too strong. Many ladies at bible study thought it was gingerbread.
