"My daughter came across this recipe for chocolate bread pudding during the holidays several years ago and made it to take to a potluck party. It was such a success that it has since graced our holiday tables."—Sara J. Jones, Sault Sainte Marie, Mich.

Serves: 10 Save

Ingredients (10)

  • 2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 ounce Kahlua or brandy
  • 2 cup 2% reduced-fat milk
  • 4 cup cubed stale French bread
  • Cream or milk (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch (5-cup) loaf pan.
  2. Melt 1 cup chocolate chips and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Whisk together eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, melted chocolate and Kahlua in a large bowl. When very smooth, stir in milk and mix well. Add bread and let stand for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure bread is evenly soaked.
