Ingredients
2 1/2 cup Warm water (105ø to 115øF)

2 package FLEISCHMANN'S Active Dry Yeast

1/4 cup Butter or margarine, softened

1/4 cup White vinegar

1/4 cup Dark molasses

1 Unsweetened baking chocolate squares, melted

2 tsp Salt

2 tsp Instant coffee granules

1 tbsp Fennel seed

4 1/4 cup All-purpose flour

5 cup Rye flour

3/4 cup Raisins

Preparation
Makes 2 round loaves. Place 1/2 cup warm water in large warm bowl. Sprinkle in yeast; stir until dissolved. Add remaining water, butter, and next 6 ingredients. Slowly stir in 3 cups all-purpose flour; blend well. Stir in rye flour and enough remaining all-purpose flour to make soft dough. Remove dough to lightly floured surface. Cover; let rest 15 minutes. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch dough down. Remove dough to lightly floured surface. Knead in raisins. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into 5-inch ball. Place each ball in greased 8-inch round cake pan or on large greased baking sheet. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Bake at 350øF for 45 minutes or until done. Remove from pans; let cool on wire racks.
