Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine lukewarm milk, lukewarm water, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the yeast mixture and melted butter (reserve one tablespoon). Knead until smooth and elastic (8-10 minutes).

- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread the chocolate filling, and roll it up tightly. Slice into pieces and place in a greased baking dish.
