Chocolate Croissant Bread and Butter Pudding

May 10, 2013 by Louise

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Okay so it seems this is the new modern take on bread and butter pudding – Chocolate croissants used instead of bread! It’s yummy and chocolatey and super easy to make. It does take a lot of eggs but if you would rather have less egg, then just use extra cream or milk instead. So for example, if you use only 4 eggs, then add an extra cup of milk or cream to substitute for the 2 eggs not used. You with me? Good!

Description

A delicious take on the traditional bread and butter pudding, using chocolate croissants instead – delicious!


Ingredients

  • 6 large croissants or 8 medium croissants (I used medium sized ones)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 slabs dark chocolate (ie. 200g)
  • 8 tablespoons Nutella (optional)
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 cups milk (full cream or low-fat)
  • 1 cup cream, plus extra for serving
  • 1 cup sugar (white or brown)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I used a vanilla pod, sliced lengthways, scraped out the seeds, then sliced the pod again and used it for decoration)
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup chocolate buttons/drops (to decorate the top of the pudding – you can just use grated chocolate as well)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C
  2. Grease a baking dish with the butter
  3. Slice the croissants in half and spread with Nutella (optional)
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the cream, milk, sugar, eggs, salt and vanilla extract, set aside.
  5. Break the chocolate into small pieces or chop it up if you like and place half the chocolate on the bottom of the dish.
  6. Now place the croissants on top and then sprinkle the rest of the chocolate inside each croissant.
  7. Pour the egg mixture over the croissants and allow to stand for 15-20 minutes.
  8. Bake for 30 minutes at 160°C
  9. Sprinkle chocolate buttons/drops/grated chocolate on top of the pudding and place in the oven for another 5 minutes to melt.
  10. Serve warm with cream.
