CROISSANT BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven.
• Set the temperature of the oven at 320ºF
• Tear up the croissants.
• Roughly tear the croissants into pieces, put them in a bowl and add the raisins.
• Make the custard.
• Start with the vanilla bean. Make an incision down the center, scrape the pulp out onto the bean and put it in a saucepan.
• Next add the cream and milk and heat over a medium temperature. When the custard starts to boil, remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Put the eggs and egg yolks in a bowl, add the sugar and begin whisking. Mix in a little hot milk, pour it all back into the saucepan and mix thoroughly.
• Using a sieve, strain the custard over the croissants and raisins. Make sure they are entirely submerged in the custard. Leave the croissants to soak like this for 15 minutes.
• Carefully pour the mixture into a buttered baking tin and spread it out to ensure that the raisins are evenly distributed.
• Place the tin in the center of the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
• To check that the pudding is done, insert a knife into the center. If when removing it is slightly wet then the pudding is ready as the centre should remain moist. Remove it from the oven and leave to cool down.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place the croissant pieces on a baking sheet and toast until just golden. Remove and set aside. Reduce oven to 250 degrees.
• Combine the cream and vanilla bean in a pot. Heat to just below the boiling point (about 185 degrees) -- the cream should be foaming but not boiling. Remove immediately from heat.
• In a bowl, stir the egg yolks and the sugar with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the bowl, until the mixture is lemon colored.
• Stir the milk mixture into the egg mixture. Put the combined liquid into a clean pot and bring to about 185 degrees, stirring and scraping the bottom to reheat (do not boil). Strain through cheesecloth.
• Arrange the lightly toasted croissant pieces in 6 ovenproof soup bowls. Cut the chocolate squares in half and distribute the pieces over the croissants. Spoon the hot custard mixture over them. Cover the bowls tightly with plastic wrap. Place them in a roasting pan holding enough water to cover the bottom. Bake for 15 minutes. Before removing plastic wrap, pierce it with a toothpick to let out the steam.
