For Mike...the recipe is a little sketchy about the initial dough rise time...I just made it in the afternoon, placed it in the fridge and made it the next morning after letting it come to room temperature. As mentioned earlier, I would have made two smaller wreaths, as opposed to one large wreath and I need to perfect my braiding technique. The taste...Mrs. RW stated that it tastes like a chocolate croissant, as another recipe that I used was very heavy due to the glaze. This glaze is just water and sugar.
