• Beat the eggs slightly.
• Beat in the sugar, cocoa, salt, chocolate milk, and vanilla.
• Pour this mixture over the bread.
• Let it stand for at least 1/2 hour.
• With a broad spatula, occasionally push the bread down into the liquid as it soaks.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE BREAD PUDDING WITH CREME ANGLAISE

Steps:

• Cube bread into 1 inch pieces.
• Melt 6 tbsp. butter, cut the remaining 2 tbsp. into small pieces.
• Brush a 13 x 9 baking dish with 1 tbsp. melted butter.
• Add chocolate chips to cubed brioche and toss to combine.
• Whisk together the remaining butter, half and half, milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt.
• Add bread and chocolate chips to baking dish.
• Pour custard mixture evenly over the bread and gently press down any pieces of dry bread so they are soaked in the cream mixture.
• Let it soak for 30 minutes - optional, but recommended.
• Preheat oven to 325°F convection (350°F without), then dot the top with the remaining pieces of butter and sprinkle raw sugar evenly over the top.
• Bake for 30 - 40 minutes. The bread pudding should be barely set, with the tiniest wobble in the middle.
• Let it stand for about 20 minutes before cutting.
• Set a fine mesh strainer over a medium bowl. Place the medium bowl into a slightly larger bowl filled halfway with ice water. (We'll need this later in step 6)
• In a small saucepan, heat the half and half with the vanilla bean over medium heat. Cook just until it barely comes to a simmer, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside. Remove vanilla bean and discard.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the sugar and egg yolks together.
• VERY slowly, add the hot milk to the egg yolks and sugar in a thin stream, while quickly whisking constantly. This is called "tempering" the eggs so they don't scramble.
• Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. The sauce should be thick enough to stay separated when you run a finger through it on the back of a spoon.
• Strain the crème anglaise through the fine mesh strainer into the chilled bowl. This stops the cooking immediately.
• Pour the crème anglaise over the bread pudding. Refrigerate any leftover sauce in an airtight container for up to a week.
