Description

A luscious, custardy dessert made from stale brioche soaked in a blend of three types of milk, resulting in a melt-in-your-mouth texture that’s light and satisfying.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 7 egg yolks
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (divided)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 loaf brioche bread (cut into cubes)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large bowl, add yolks, milk, evaporated milk, 3/4 can of condensed milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Whisk until smooth; the mixture should feel silky as you stir.
  3. Gently add the brioche cubes, folding them into the custard until fully coated.
  4. Transfer to a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  5. Top with semi-sweet chocolate chips, which will melt and form pockets of sweetness.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the pudding has set.
  7. Drizzle the remaining condensed milk over the top just before serving; serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

Letting the bread soak for a little longer can make a significant difference for an even creamier interior.
