Chocolate bread Pudding
I was working on cleaning my pantry when i found two days old white bread.Then i look over my fridge and saw a large bowl of chocolate sponge cake trimmings from my other dish chocolate mousse cake. I look again at the dairy shelf part of my fridge and found a small carton of fresh cream. I wanna throw all the bread to the garbage so that there will be no leftover foods in my fridge. Obviously I'm cleaning it. But the other side of my brain telling me that "NO DO NOT DUMP THEM.MAKE A DELIGHTFUL DISH OUT OF THOSE BREADS. Instead of wasting it turn them into delightful dish. The next thing i did was to open my spice cabinet to find other ingredient that would pair with breads. I found cinnamon powder, caster sugar, espresso and semi-sweet chocolate chips.. you know what happened next?? i simply turn those ingredients to chocolate bread pudding
serve 2
3 slices white bread-torn into bite size
3 slices chocolate bread or chocolate sponge cake-torn into bite size
1/2 cup single cream
1 large egg
2 tablespoon caster sugar plus few dash for dusting
single shot espresso
2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
2 tablespoon butter-preferably unsalted
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Here's how
Preheat oven to 400F
Blend the two breads in a bowl and place in two ramekins.
Mix cream,sugar ,espresso, cinnamon powder,butter and chocolate chips in a medium saucepan. Set over low-medium heat. Whisk until butter melts and other ingredients well combined. Heat gently,do not boil until mixtures nearly thick. Beat egg in a separate bowl. Ladle cream mixture in beaten egg and whisk again. Put the tampered egg back into saucepan and heat gently.
Pour cream mixture evenly into prepared ramekins with bread and press gently with the spoon. Place the pudding into pan filled with hot water and bake for ten to fifteen minutes or until the pudding are cooked and firm.
Cool slightly and serve.
You may prefer to serve pudding in ramekins or you may take them out of ramekins,place in a dessert plate and serve with some store bought sauce like strawberry sauce, caramel sauce or even chocolate sauce...
