Chocolate bread pudding recipe .

6 cups brioch bread cut into cubes
1/2 stick butter
2 pkt whipping cream
1 cup whole or low-fat milk
5 egg yolks
about 300 g chocolate chips
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
vanilla ice cream, for serving, optional

1. Cut bread into bite-size cubes. (If crusts are hard, don't use.) Pour in baking dish, and set aside.
2. melt butter and drizzle over bread, tossing to distribute butter as evenly as possible. Set aside.
3. Pour cream and milk into a large saucepan, and bring just to a boil over medium heat. Meanwhile, place yolks in a small mixing bowl, and beat lightly. When cream mixture boils, remove from heat, add chocolate, sugar, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth and chocolate melts. Add yolks, and whisk well.
4. pour cream mixture evenly over bread, making sure all is covered. Use back of a spoon to even out mixture, if necessary. Cover with foil, and refrigerate at least 1 hour so bread can begin to absorb the milk mixture.
5. Preheat the oven to 180 C .
6. Remove dish from refrigerator, and bake until pudding is just set about 1/2 hour.
7. Remove dish from oven, and allow to cool 10 to 15 minutes. Spoon warm pudding into dessert bowls, and top with vanilla ice cream as desired .
