I made this for my mom as an early Christmas present, she loved it. We could stop eating it. I'm going to make another one this year.

I too make this yummy bread every Christmas - it is a family tradition. It is easy to make and has an excellent flavor. I do leave out the nuts as my husband doesn't like them and I have used regular milk chocolate chips which doesn't seem to change the good flavor :)
