triple chocolate raspberry bread pudding
This is decacent and rich! Many bread puddings call for baking in a water bath (bain Marie) but I did not use this method and the pudding was fine. Just do not over bake.

How To Make triple chocolate raspberry bread pudding
-
1Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease bottom and sides of a 13x9, or comparably sized oven-safe casserole dish.
-
2Place half the bread cubes in the greased pan. Sprinkle with half the raspberries and half the chocolate morsels. Top with remaining bread cubes, raspberries, and morsels, and set aside.
-
3In a large bowl, beat the eggs then whisk in the milk/iced coffee/cream combination (or just milk), vanilla, and liqueur.
-
4In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, cocoa, and cinnamon. Add to the milk/egg mixture and whisk until sugars are dissolved.
-
5Gently, pour the egg mixture over the cubed bread, raspberries, and morsels in the baking dish. Press down gently on the top, with back of a spatula so all bread is covered. Let sit 20 minutes WITHOUT STIRRING, until most of the bread is moist and liquid absorbed. Top with walnut halves.
-
6Bake for 1 hour or until a knife inserted comes out mostly clean (melted chocolate and raspberry may stick to the knife and the center should still be a little moist, but not soupy.) . Mainly the egg mixture should be set around outside of dish and only slight movement in the center. The pudding will continue to cook once removed from the oven.
-
7Serve warm, or cold with whipped cream (optional.)
