Chocolate Marble Bagels

Baking Bagels is tough!
To make chewy bagel....add less water than other bread.
(The hydration of the bagel dough = 55%)
When you knead the dough by your hand, it is stiff.

Today, I made Chocolate Marble Bagels for my breakfast.

See!? It is marble and shiny crust!!! I filled chocolate chip as well. So it is quite sweet, crispy crust and chewy crumb.
You need to make 2 kinds of the dough, and make double layer.
