Great -- should be ok. But I'd shape it first thing tomorrow. Let us know how it turns out!

Ellie L. · Answer

No, dough is not shaped. It is still in the bowl, covered as I put in last night.

Amanda H. · Answer

It should be. Did you shape it already?

Ellie L. · Answer

I am unable to bake my babka tonight will the dough be okay refrigerated another night and I can bake tomorrow.

Awesome!! Thank you so much!! Happy New Year!!!

Amanda H. · Answer

No -- in fact, it will be easier to handle if still cool. It will be a bit stiffer but less sticky/difficult!
