Lauren of Upper East Side Chronicle has chosen chocolate bread pudding for TWD this week. Even though it's yet another recipe that calls for chocolate, I still went ahead and gave it a try because I've not baked bread pudding before.
Using a 5-inch souffle dish, I made a quarter of the recipe and also substituted half of the raisins with dried cranberries. The bread pudding was not bad, but I would like it more if it's a non-chocolatey version. I'm glad that I included cranberries in it, as it lends a tangy flavour to the dessert.

Beautiful photo! I am a fan on vanilla custard bread pudding, but I really liked this one too. It was even better drizzled with chocolate sauce or cream anglaise!
Looks excellent. I added some tart cherries to mine and it really helped brighten this up.
I thought about adding cranberries too but forgot once I started making the recipe. LOL..this happens to me quite a bit lately.
Great job!
wow.
You can even make bread pudding look delicate! lol
I'm glad you enjoyed it (or I think you did, with the tanginess of the cranberries!)
I have to admit, it is nice to expand your knowledge, and make something for the first time. If if as simple as bread pudding.
All I can say is I just love that towel that your pudding is on.
Where did you get it???
Looks gorgeous with the sprinkling of powdered sugar on top and the cranberries peeking out!
Amanda - ah, I should have it with cream anglaise, that would taste so good!
Sara - I thought of using cherries as well but I couldn't find it in local stores. I bet your pudding must be really yummy.
Michelle - LOL! That happens to me very often too. ;-)
Vibi - Thanks for your compliment. I'm glad that I tried the recipe out, at least now i know how to make bread pudding!
Chocolatechic - The towel is pretty, isn't it? I got it from Japan.
Chris - Thanks for dropping by!
Yum. If I try this again, I want to try the cranberries.
Your bread pudding looks fantastic!
I think I would like this with the cranberries in it as well but but not so sure I would like it without the chocolate. :) Beautiful photos!
Beautiful! I really appreciated the fruit, because it cut into the rich chocolatey taste.
Your photos are really beautiful and that's saying something because this was really tough to photograph :)
I think the cranberries were a good idea. I left the fruit out all together- but I love how you can see the little darts of red in your puddings!
looks so nice! and i can see those red cranberries!
It looks beautiful! That is quite a talent to get this to photograph so well!
Even though this one didn't do it for you, it looks like a picture out of a magazine! Perfect texture! Some other bakers made it with semi-sweet or even milk chocolate to cut the intensity of the chocolate flavor. I can't wait to see what you do next week with the third chocolate recipe in a row!
Wow! so yummilicious!
That looks seriously delicious.
Boy, Piggy, you really nailed the presentation of this (as well as the baking - it looks like the perfect bread pudding consistency. I forgot the powdered sugar...
I'll have to say that I prefer non-choc bread pudding but I didn't have any trouble finishing mine!
Nancy
Your photos are amazing! Looks delicious.
