Directions
Ad the water, milk, egg, and vanilla extract to your bread machine pan. Then, add the bread flour, sucralose and brown sugar blend, salt, cinnamon, cocoa powder, yeast, and margarine on top—in that order. Choose the 1 1/2-pound loaf setting with a light crust and hit start. When the machine begins the last kneading cycle, toss in the peanut butter and semisweet chocolate chips. Once the bread is done baking, let it cool for about 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and enjoying.
How To Serve This Dish
