Did you mean only use half the recipe of dough for the braided knot? I used all the dough, divided in half, added filling to each half then cut each half in half for 4 strips. My Babka is huge! Gigantic! Enormous! In addition, I had to cook it for 90 minutes. It tastes good, but is just too big. It is so big that it really couldn't hold its knotted shape and wound up spreading out.
