Chocolate dough is the foundation of many culinary masterpieces that originated from European cuisine and has captured the hearts of sweet lovers worldwide. Its history dates back to when cocoa became available in Europe, transforming ordinary baking into a rich, aromatic delight. The thick texture, intense chocolate flavor, and slight sweetness make it perfect for pastries, cakes, and rolls. The dough becomes airy thanks to whipped eggs, while the combination of cocoa and sugar gives it a deep, rich hue. It is a versatile base for desserts suitable for both festive cakes and cozy home baking.
