Servings: 1 loaf (12 slices)
Prep: 45 mins
Total: 4 hrs 15 mins
Ingredients
Pumpernickel Dough:
2/3 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees F)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 envelope active dry yeast
1 tablespoons bread flour
3/4 cup rye flour
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
2 teaspoons espresso powder
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons unsulfured molasses
Rye Dough:
2/3 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees F)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 envelope active dry yeast
1 tablespoons bread flour
3/4 cup rye flour
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons unsulfured molasses
Topping:
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
Directions
1. Pumpernickel Dough: Mix 1/3 cup warm water and sugar in small bowl. Sprinkle yeast over top. Let stand until foamy, 5 to 10 minutes.
2. Mix bread and rye flours, salt and caraway seeds in large bowl. Whisk in espresso and cocoa powders. Add vinegar and molasses to remaining 1/3 cup warm water. Stir vinegar-yeast mixture into flour mixture in bowl. Add more bread flour if dough is too sticky.
3. Turn dough out onto floured work surface. With floured hands, knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes; dough will be slightly stiff.
4. Transfer dough to greased bowl; turn to coat. Cover with clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
5. Rye Dough: Prepare dough, following steps 1 through 3, omitting espresso and cocoa powders. Transfer to a second greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover with towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 1/4 hours.
6. Remove doughs from bowls. Punch doughs down. Let rest for 5 minutes. Roll doughs into 11 x 8-inch rectangles. On top of rye dough, place pumpernickel dough, overlapping so 1-inch strip of rye dough is exposed along short side. Fold exposed "lip" over; firmly roll up doughs together. Pinch seams to close; turn ends under. Transfer to greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 5/8-inch loaf pan. Cover with kitchen towel. Let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
7. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush top of risen loaf with the beaten egg white. Sprinkle with the caraway seeds. Bake in heated 350 degrees F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden, puffed and hollow-sounding when tapped. Remove from pan to wire rack to cool.

Low rating was accidental; would have given it a 3 1/2-4. I think there is an error in the amount of bread flour; I think possibly it should be 1 cup for each type of bread to start. You can make a double batch of the rye dough, pull out half, and knead the cocoa powder and espresso powder into the remaining half (the doughs are identical except for those two ingredients). Not sure if that's possible by hand, but it worked well with a dough hook & stand mixer.
