Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Time 2h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for greasing
5 cups (1-inch) bread cubes, preferably 1 day old (from about 3 bolillo rolls or 3/4 of a loaf of French bread)
2 3/4 cups whole milk
2 (3.1-ounce) discs Mexican chocolate,* chopped (recommended: Ibarra)
1 cup granulated sugar
2 whole eggs
3 large egg yolks
1/3 cup raisins
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Butter an 8 by 8 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Set aside.
  • Place the bread cubes in the prepared baking dish. Bring the milk to a simmer in a large heavy saucepan. Remove from the heat. Add the chocolate and whisk until melted and smooth.
  • Using an electric hand mixer, beat the sugar, eggs, and egg yolks in a medium bowl until blended. Gradually whisk the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Add the raisins and cinnamon. Pour the custard over the bread. Let the mixture stand for 1 hour (some custard will not be absorbed). Can be prepared and refrigerated for up to 2 hours ahead.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Bake until just set and the center moves slightly when the dish is shaken, about 45 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm or at room temperature.
