Chocolate Bread Pudding with Coconut image

Nothing was wasted on the farm where I grew up in southwest Nebraska-this pudding was made from stale bread. My father loved chocolate, so if we weren't having this dessert, we'd have homemade chocolate ice cream or chocolate cake!

This bread pudding was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but this bread pudding was still really good. The chocolate flavor was rich and the pudding was very moist.
