Introduction

Leftover Challah bread soaks up a rich cocoa-infused custard before being topped off with chopped chocolate and baked to delicious, almost brownie-like perfection. The only thing that would make it better is a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!

Ingredients

    9 oz stale Challah or egg bread
    2 large eggs
