How to Make Chocolate Orange Souffl Bread Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually whisk in the melted butter and milk until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the chopped chocolate, orange zest, and Cointreau. Add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently to combine.
  5. Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and add them to the chocolate mixture. Gently toss to ensure all the bread is coated.
  6. Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or preferably, in the refrigerator for 2-3 days to allow the flavors to meld and the bread to soak fully.
  7. Once ready to bake, cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the pudding is puffed and set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let the pudding cool slightly before serving. Top with fresh whipped cream or ice cream, orange zest, and white chocolate curls.
