Ingredients you will need to make our Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ⅓ unsweetened cocoa powder
- 5 large eggs
- 2 cups Chocolate Milk - you can use any milk for this recipe - even whole milk, skim milk or even almond milk or another plant based milk alternative. I just like the little extra chocolate from the chocolate milk. Add 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder to the milk if you're not using chocolate milk.

- 3 cups cubed potato bread
- ½ cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
- 1 cup chocolate chips OR chopped up leftover Halloween chocolate candy

Instructions for how to make our Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. You'll need a 9x13 casserole dish for a thin bread pudding, or you can use a 8x8 dish for a thicker bread pudding. I ended up using a 8x8 and two ramekins to make Angeline and I individual servings as well.
In a large bowl, mix together all of your ingredients except for the bread and whisk until sugar has totally been dissolved. Gently stir in the cubed bread and let it sit for about ten minutes to absorb.
Pour your prepared bread mixture into prepared pan and bake for about 25 minutes if you are using a 9x13 inch pan, or 35 minutes if you are using a 8x8 inch pan.
Remember, the thicker the consistency you're going for, the longer it will need to bake all the way through!
Serving Suggestions for this Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding
This Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding is fantastic on its own, but adding a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a scoop of your favorite ice cream makes it absolutely irresistible! Got some whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla - or even chocolate ice cream? Even better!
Variations and Substitutions
Chocolate Chunk Bread Pudding - Use chocolate chunks, or chopped pieces of leftover Hershey's bars instead of the chocolate chips! People will love bread pudding with chocolate chunks just as much as chips!
White Chocolate Chips - You can use white chocolate chips or a mixture of both kinds of chocolate chips for a fun change!
There you have it: an easy, decadent dessert that’s sure to impress your family and friends. Ready to give it a try? Grab your ingredients and get to baking, whether you're making this for a fall treat or any time of year - happy baking!
