How to Make Rich Chocolate Brioche Bake
- Lightly grease a 9x13 inch shallow, oven-proof baking dish.
- In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler), melt 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, 2 tablespoons orange marmalade, and 2 tablespoons unsalted butter. Stir occasionally until completely smooth.
- Let the chocolate mixture cool until just barely warm to the touch.
- Arrange sliced brioche (about 1 pound) in the prepared dish, overlapping slices to cover the bottom. Generously spread the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the brioche.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/2 cup whole milk, and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Pour the egg mixture slowly and evenly over the brioche slices. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Remove the dish from the refrigerator. Sprinkle the top with 2 tablespoons raw sugar.
- Bake for 30 minutes, then tent loosely with foil.
- Continue baking for 10-20 minutes, or until the custard is lightly set and the brioche is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let sit until the baking dish is just cool enough to handle.
- Lightly brush the exposed, crusty edges of the brioche with melted butter using a pastry brush (optional).
- Serve warm and enjoy!
