In the order suggested by your machine directions - add all ingredients
and process on the bread cycle according to the manufacturer's directions.
The following was above the ingredients in the cookbook about this
recipe: When adding chocolate to a bread as light and rich as brioche it's
like gilding the lily. It was noted that the butter was reduced slightly to
let the bittersweet chocolate come through, while maintaining the volume
and delicacy of the brioche. That it is a sensuous treat - either buttered
or plain with coffee, tea or milk.
