Coffee, Cinnamon & Chocolate Buns
This month we’ve chosen to highlight our Coffee chocolate slab. Made from 72% pure, raw organic cacao and sprinkled with cracked coffee beans, this slab is a hit amongst many!
We created these delightful cinnamon and chocolate buns, covered with a coffee glaze and filled with our Honest coffee chocolate ganache.
Try the recipe out for yourself!

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
60grams butter

Roll the dough out into a rectangle about ½cm thick and spread a thin layer of the filling over the dough

Twist two pieces around each other to create a plait
Form into a ring on a lined baking sheet, or cut the cylinder into several pieces and make mini rings
