Chocolate Bread Pudding
Large or small family this dessert is a sure winner. I tripled the ingredients to meet the demands of 10 kids (2 staying on respite). Amazing what you can do with a loaf of bread!
Ingredients:
6 thick slices of white bread, remove the crusts.
450ml milk
175ml evaporated milk (can)
2 tbsp cocoa powder
2 eggs
2 tbsp dark muscovado sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
icing sugar, for dusting.
Instructions
1. Layer ovenproof dish (greased) with squares of bread.
2. Combine milk, evaporated milk and cocoa powder in a saucepan and heat gently. Stir occasionally until lukewarm.
3. Whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla essence together. Add the warm milk mixture and beat well.
4. Pour into oven dish, covering the bread evenly. Cover the dish with cling wrap and chill for 1-2hrs
5. Bake the pudding in a preheated oven (remember to remove cling wrap first!) 180˚C for 35-40 minutes, until set. Remove and allow to stand for minutes. Dust with icing sugar.
