Units Scale

For the Bread Pudding:

  • 6 cups cubed day-old bread (such as French or brioche)
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

For the Cream Sauce:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spread the bread cubes evenly in the dish.
  2. Prepare the custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread, pressing down lightly. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
  3. Bake: Let the mixture sit, then bake for 45–50 minutes until golden and set. Cool slightly before serving.
  4. Make the cream sauce: In a saucepan, heat the cream and sugar until dissolved. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and butter until smooth.
  5. Serve: Drizzle warm bread pudding with cream sauce and enjoy!

Notes
