Brioche and Butter pudding with chocolate chunks

This is a very quick pudding to make, and one I whipped up (literally) in 5 minutes in a friend's house.   The brioche is deliciously light and pale yellow, unlike the more conventional white bread, and the chocolate chunks gave it a luxurious touch.    Bread and butter pudding is a classic, but fresh brioche much better!

This, and other mouthwatering recipes, in my new cookbook:  Kate's Puddings Cookbook - out now! http://www.parkersprint.com/kates%20puddings.html

Brioche and Butter Pudding with Chocolate Chunks

¾ a brioche loaf
butter
dark chocolate cut into big chunks
3 eggs
2oz/50g sugar
1 pint whole milk

Oven 180 deg C

Cut the brioche into thick slices and butter them.  Arrange in a buttered oven proof dish, slipping chunks of chocolate in between and around the slices. 

In a jug, beat up the eggs, sugar and milk, and pour it over the brioche.  If you have time, allow to soak for about 10 minutes or more.  Otherwise, simply bung it into the oven.   It takes 20 minutes or so to cook, and will puff up nicely. 

Serve with cream or yoghurt.    Serves 6.
