Way awesome, Bea!!!

Thanks for posting this incredible recipe! I love it --- I love chocolate.

Besides, I've been looking for a great chocolate bread pudding - what a great treat for after school snacks. My daughter suggested adding raisins (she loves them).

My kinda girl with the raisin idea, I love them too, in fact just had a handful for snack.

I've had chocolate bread pudding, but prefere my mothers old recipe made from left over biscuit bread.
And of course the New Orleans way with french bread is awesome.

See Ya!
