While I was eating a fabulous dinner with my amazing male friend, Shabiz tonight we got on the topic of cakes and sweet things of sorts. I began to reminisce about my childhood and life in the Valley when I suddenly remembered my love of Babka. Babka is a tall, spongy yeast cake filled with chocolate. The best part is that it is often topped with streusel and chocolate chips. Babka is often popular among the Jewish population, hence the reason I was raving about it to Shabiz. I told him about how my mother would buy it weekly, on Friday, for Shabbat, and that I would often sneak down to the kitchen to slice small pieces of Babka for myself.It is truly delish and I am now actively trying to find a Jewish bakery in the city that could provide me with some ORGASMIC chocolate babka. yummy!
