1 Video | Photo: Chocolate Bread Pudding Recipe
Ingredients
- 1-pound loaf French or Italian bread, cut into cubes (about 15 cups)
- 3 cups milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup coffee-flavored liqueur
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons pure almond extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Lightly grease a 13 by 9-inch baking dish. Place the bread in the baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, and liqueur.
In another bowl, combine the granulated and brown sugars with the cocoa powder and mix well. Add this to the milk mixture and whisk to combine.
Add the vanilla and almond extracts and the cinnamon to the beaten eggs. Combine the egg mixture with the milk mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour the mixture evenly over the bread cubes; let stand, stirring occasionally, for at least 20 minutes, or until the bread has absorbed most of the milk mixture. Bake the pudding for 1 hour, or until set; a knife inserted into the center of the pudding should come out clean. Serving the pudding warm, or refrigerate it and serve chilled.
Serve it warm or cold, with whipped cream or a dessert sauce.

Horrible!! Literally the worst bread pudding I have ever made. Never mind the fact that the ingredients or cooking temp in the recipe doesn't match the ingredients or cooking temp in the video, it would not cook properly. I cooked it at 350 for an hour and 20 minutes and it still not completely set. I took it to a potluck, and was SO embarrassed when I went to serve it. The outside was as hard as a rock! You had to cut it with a knife. And the inside was all mushy. Absolutely horrible. I will never make this recipe again!

OMG... This bread pudding is the best bread pudding I have ever put in my mouth. This is so good it will make you want to slap your mama!! Just Kidding! I did tweak a few things as I added some salt to the Irish Cream Sauce Paula suggest to use and I changed the Godiva Chip and just depends on how strong of a chocolate flavor you like. I also put 1/4 cup of Irish Cream in the mix and added a 1/4 cup coffee instead of Liquor.

I was so looking forward to this. Went to the store just to get all the ingredients; got home and spent an hour prepping it. After the hour bake time, it still was cold and runny in the center. After another 20 min., still cold and runny in the center yet hard and crusty on the edges. I went ahead and tried what was done on the edges....BLAH, so bitter. Definately not for someone expecting a tasty, sweet dessert.
