Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding image

I love bread pudding and I love chocolate croissants. Why not combine them? My daughters love chocolate, so this was a winner in my house. It's like a combination of a soft-brownie-cakey-chocolate-chip-cookie with a bit of a creamy texture inside. It tastes good warm, as all melted chocolate desserts do, but even better cooled. My daughters couldn't wait to eat, so good luck holding out for it to cool.

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

butter-flavored cooking spray
2 cups 2% milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 eggs
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
4 large day-old chocolate croissants, cut into 1/2-inch-thick pieces
1 (6 ounce) bag chocolate chips
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray muffin cups or brownie pan with cooking spray.
  • Mix milk, cream, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Scrape the insides from each vanilla bean half into the milk mixture. Stir milk mixture until smooth and light yellow in color. Carefully stir croissant pieces into milk mixture until all pieces are wet; let soak for at least 10 minutes.
  • Fold chocolate chips into croissant mixture. Spoon croissant mixture into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool pudding for 30 minutes to 1 hour; transfer to a plate and sift powdered sugar over each.

I wasn't a fan of this bread pudding. I found it to be too dense and stodgy.

This bread pudding was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was expecting. I probably won't make this again.

This bread pudding was amazing! I used a chocolate croissant and it was so rich and decadent. The bread pudding was moist with a delicious caramelized crunchy top. I highly recommend this recipe!
