Bread and Butter Chocolate pudding

This is a recipe for an easy-to-make dessert and is not very time consuming as well. The recipe is as follows:

Ingredients required:

• White bread or milk bread (preferably not wholemeal or brown bread)
• Butter
• Chocolate

For the custard:

• 500 ml milk
• 4 eggs
• Sugar
• Raisins

Procedure:

Start off by cutting the bread into small pieces and simultaneously place the pieces in a baking tray. Cut small pieces of butter and place them over the arranged pieces of bread. As can be seen in the picture below, I did not add much butter as I was not exactly sure how much I was supposed to add. But this wasn't enough. I had to add more later to make the bread softer and as everyone knows... more the butter, better it tastes :p 

Put this tray in the microwave for approximately a minute or until the butter melts. Simultaneously in a double boiler, melt chocolate. I used Galaxy chocolate bars because I did not find baking chocolate in time. I used a mix of both milk and dark chocolate bars. 

Once the chocolate is melted, pour it over the bread and butter in the tray. Leave this to set aside for a while until the custard is ready.

I made enough for 2 trays, so the picture above is of the 2nd tray. Preheat the oven to 180C.

In a separate bowl start making the custard. Use 500ml of milk and 4 eggs. Therefore, 1L milk would be 8 eggs. Mix the eggs and the milk and add sugar according to sweetness required. 

Mix thoroughly and add it to the tray with the bread and chocolate. To finish off, sprinkle a few raisins on the top. Put the baking tray in the oven at 180C for about 35- 40 minutes. Keep a regular check after approximately 30 minutes.  

The finished product would look something like this:
