Directions
Chocolate Orange Souffl Bread Pudding, Impress your family & friends with this delicious but very easy make-ahead pudding, with some naughty but very nice ingredients: two types of chocolate, fresh oranges & more than a splash of Cointreau for that special touch! It can be made up to 2-3 days in advance – the longer it steeps in the chocolate & cointreau mixture, the fluffier & lighter it will be when cooked, hence a Souffl Bread & Butter pudding Serve with fresh whipped cream or Ice cream & garnish with grated orange zest & white chocolate curls Serve in small portions because it is very rich , Hubby and I loved this dessert and will make it again The revisions I made for the Make It Healthier Tag were: French bread w/o any dairy products (angie_pangies’ recipe Everyday Bread (French Bread) Abm Bread Machine, Recipe #210212), unsalted butter instead of regular butter, fat free half and half in place of the whipping cream, and an egg substitute I also used oranges from our neighbor’s tree so will give them some dessert:) I am sorry that my photos are so unattractive-I have a lot to learn
