Any bread made with chocolate is O.K. by me! Sounds wonderful, and I'll definitely give it a try.

Toni, do you melt both butters to mix with the cocoa?
This would be wonderful with a raspberry sauce.

Sharon sorry for the confusion, I amended the recipe to clear that up especially since I forgot to include that the softened butter was beaten together with the sugar, eggs, etc.
Thanks for catching that
I don't know about the raspberry sauce, I am probably one of the few people around who doesn't like raspberry
