Bread and butter pudding with choc chunks
- Serves 4
- Prep time: 10 mins | Cooking time: 30 mins
An economical way of using up leftover bread from cut lunches while giving Dad (and the rest of the family) a special treat.
Ingredients
8 slices white bread, crusts removed
75 grams butter, softened
50 grams dark chocolate, chopped roughly
3 eggs, beaten
½ cup caster sugar
2½ cups milk
Method
Preheat the oven to 170°C.
Butter the bread on both sides and arrange in a baking dish.
Scatter over the chocolate.
Beat together the eggs, sugar and milk. Pour over the bread, pressing a little to get it to absorb. If you have 20 minutes to let the pudding sit before cooking, do that now. Otherwise cook straight away.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until custard is just set.
Serve with pouring cream, lightly dusted with cocoa, if wished.
