Recipe courtesy of Gourmet Magazine

Ingredients
4 cups milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon or 1/2 cinnamon stick
2 large eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Dash of salt
2 cups fresh bread crumbs
Whipped cream and chocolate shavings, for garnish

Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

In a large saucepan milk, butter, chocolate, espresso powder and cinnamon over
moderately low heat, whisking, until butter and chocolate melt and mixture is
smooth. In a bowl whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt. Whisk in the
bread crumbs and pour in the hot milk in a stream, whisking constantly. Pour the
mixture into a buttered 6-cup baking dish and bake for 45 minutes, or until
pudding is set in the middle and a tester comes out clean. Allow the pudding to
cool for 15 minutes and serve warm garnished with whipped cream and chocolate
shavings.
