Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 250 g stale bread cut into 3cm cubes
- 100 g chocolate chips
- 3 eggs
- 40 g soft light brown sugar
- 125 mL full-fat cream
- 500 mL milk
- 4 tsp granulated sugar
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 170C. Grease an ovenproof dish lightly with butter.
-
Tip in the stale bread crumbs. Toss in the chocolate chips to spread evenly among the bread cubes.
-
Whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, cream and milk. Pour this mixture over the bread and press the cubes down to coat them in the liquid.
-
Leave all this to soak for 20 mins, then sprinkle with the granulated sugar and put straight into the oven for 50-60 mins. The pudding is ready when the custard has set and has a light wobble.
-
Let the dish stand for a while before serving - if you can!
