Isn't this shape called a couronne? a Babka is usually made in a Kugelhupf form. Also, a Babka is usually filled with dried or candied fruits. Occasionally, maybe nuts, even chocolate bits. A couronne is always shaped just like this recipe, and can be filled with almost anything - nuts, poppy seeds, fruits and or preserves, even chocolate
