How to cook deliciously - Death By Chocolate Bread Pudding

1 . Stage

The day before: slice bread into 1" cubes and leave out overnight to dry out. (Alternately, place bread on baking sheet and bake at 200º for 20 minutes, then let cool.) Increase oven temperature to 325º.

2 . Stage

In a medium saucepan, combine milk, chocolate, and butter; place over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until chocolate has melted, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.

3 . Stage

In a large bowl, whisk to combine sugar, eggs and egg yolks, vanilla, and salt. Whisk in milk mixture and cream. Transfer bread, chocolate custard mixture, and chocolate chips to a 9"-x-13" baking dish and toss to coat. Let mixture sit 10 minutes to allow bread to soak up custard. Bake until pudding is set, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 35 minutes before topping with hot fudge, raspberries, and serving with ice cream.
