Categories     dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking dish
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 cups bread cubes (1-inch cubes), such as sourdough
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1 cup orange juice, fresh or store-bought
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 navel orange, zested

Steps:

  • For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt in a large bowl. Pour in the bread and chocolate chips. Toss until the bread is coated on all sides and the chocolate is distributed. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • For the sauce: Meanwhile, place a small saucepot over medium-high heat. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the orange juice. Pour the remaining orange juice and sugars into the saucepot and whisk until combined. Bring to a simmer and simmer, whisking occasionally, until the sugars dissolve, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk together the reserved orange juice and cornstarch in a small bowl. Pour into the sauce and whisk until combined. Cook until the sauce becomes syrupy, about 5 minutes. Stir in the orange zest. The sauce will thicken more as it cools. Pour the warm sauce over the pudding and serve.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 12-ounce can (11/2 cups) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons bourbon
2 large eggs plus 6 egg yolks
12 cups day-old challah bread cubes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chunks
Pinch of salt
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat the milk, 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup orange juice concentrate in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring. Cool slightly. (It's OK if the mixture curdles slightly.)
  • Whisk the milk mixture, 2 tablespoons bourbon and the whole eggs and yolks in a large bowl; fold in the bread. Cover and refrigerate until the liquid is absorbed, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Fold the chocolate chunks into the bread mixture. Spread evenly in the baking dish and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cook, stirring, until lightly caramelized, 5 to 6 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 1 cup orange juice concentrate, 3/4 cup bourbon and the salt. Cook until thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the cream and simmer until the sauce coats a spoon, about 10 more minutes. Slice the bread pudding and drizzle with the sauce.

CHOCOLATE ORANGE BRIOCHE BREAD PUDDING

"Toasting the brioche in the oven is a key step to the recipe. It helps to dry out the bread, which makes it even better at soaking up the custard for a moist, cake-like texture," shares Tom Filippou, executive chef for President's Choice Cooking School. "To make this more indulgent, serve it with vanilla bean ice cream or freshly whipped cream and garnish with a sprinkling of dark chocolate shavings."
