How to Make Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bagels

Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of active dry yeast, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of warm water (105-115°F). Let stand for 3 minutes until foamy.
Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
Add wet ingredients and chocolate chips: Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Gradually add 1/2 cup more flour, then stir in 1 cup of mini chocolate chips.
Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, adding more flour as needed, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
First rise: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Shape the bagels: Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a smooth ball. Let rest for 4 minutes.
Boil the bagels: Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat to a simmer.
Create the bagel shape: Gently poke a hole in the center of each dough ball using your thumb, then widen the hole to about 2 inches in diameter, forming a bagel shape.
Boil and bake: Gently drop 2-3 bagels into the simmering water for 45 seconds per side, turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Egg wash: Brush the tops of the bagels with 1 egg white lightly beaten with 1 teaspoon of water.
Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30-35 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until the bagels are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Cool and enjoy: Let the bagels cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
