BROWNIE PUDDING

Categories     dessert

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus extra for buttering the dish
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup good cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean
1 tablespoon framboise liqueur, optional
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2-quart (9 by 12 by 2-inch) oval baking dish. Melt the 1/2 pound of butter and set aside to cool.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and sugar on medium-high speed for 5 to 10 minutes, until very thick and light yellow. Meanwhile, sift the cocoa powder and flour together and set aside.
  • When the egg and sugar mixture is ready, reduce the speed to low and add the vanilla seeds, framboise, if using, and the cocoa powder and flour mixture. Mix only until combined. With mixer still on low, slowly pour in the cooled butter and mix again just until combined.
  • Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared dish and place it in a larger baking pan. Add enough of the hottest tap water to the pan to come halfway up the side of the dish and bake for exactly 1 hour. A cake tester inserted 2 inches from the side will come out 3/4 clean. The center will appear very under-baked; this dessert is between a brownie and a pudding.
  • Allow to cool and serve with vanilla ice cream.

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
17 ounces brioche (crust removed), cut into 1 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 cup heavy cream
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/4 cups pure cane sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (Valhrona Manjari 64 percent), finely chopped
4 whole large eggs
2 large egg yolks
Chocolate Ganache
1 cup desiccated coconut
3/4 cup passion fruit juice
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons white rum
1/2 vanilla bean
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup coconut milk
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • For the Ganache:
  • In a small bowl place the chocolate. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat bring the cream to a simmer and then pour over the chocolate. Let the chocolate mixture sit for 30 seconds and then whisk until smooth, keep warm.
  • For the Bread Pudding:
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment and add the diced brioche. Drizzle with the melted butter and toss to coat. Bake in the oven and lightly golden brown. Removing and tossing several times. This should be repeated for about 12 minutes. Once the bread has evenly browned, remove and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile in a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the cream, coconut milk, sugar and vanilla bean and seeds in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer and whisk until the sugar has dissolved. Add the chopped bittersweet chocolate and whisk until melted. Strain the mixture into a medium size bowl.
  • In a separate medium bowl whisk together the eggs and yolks and slowly add the warm chocolate mixture, whisking as you add.
  • Place half of the brioche cubes in a single layer in the bottom of a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Pour 1/2 of the custard mixture over the bread and half of the ganache. Sprinkle with half of the coconut. Press down on the bread, allowing the liquid to soak in. Place the remaining bread cubes over the top, add the remaining custard and ganache and again, press down to completely submerge the bread.
  • Top with the remaining coconut, cover and let sit for at least 30 minutes before baking. While the bread is sitting continue to check and press down on the bread so that it is completely submerged with the custard mixture.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Uncover the bread pudding, and place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Fill the outer roasting pan with warm water until it comes halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  • Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake until the sides are slightly puffy and the center is slightly set (but still jiggles a bit).
  • For the Passion Fruit Sauce:
  • Into a small saucepan cut the passion fruit in half and scoop out centers (including the seeds). Add the sugar, orange juice and rum and let cook over high heat until sugar has dissolved and sauce has thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and chill in the refrigerator.
  • For the anglaise:
  • Split vanilla bean. In a small heavy saucepan bring milks and vanilla bean half just to a boil and remove pan from heat. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean halves into milk and reserve pod for another use. In a bowl whisk together yolks and sugar. Add milk in a stream, whisking, and transfer custard to saucepan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, stirring, until thickened slightly and an instant-read thermometer registers 170 degrees F. Pour custard through a fine sieve into a metal bowl set in a large bowl of ice and cold water and cool, stirring occasionally, until cold. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, its surface covered with plastic wrap.
  • Remove the pan to a baking rack and let sit for 15 minutes. Spoon some of the coconut anglaise into a bowl and drizzle with the passion fruit sauce. Top with a large scoop of the bread pudding and serve.

Pour enough hot tap water into the larger dish to reach halfway up the side of the bread pudding dish. Bake until just set, but still wiggly, about 50 minutes.

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 cups prepared brownies, cubed
1 ½ cups milk
⅓ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup chopped almonds, divided

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use stale bread. Stale bread absorbs more liquid and results in a richer, more flavorful bread pudding. If you don't have stale bread, you can toast fresh bread cubes in the oven to dry them out slightly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the bread pudding tough. Stir the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Let the bread pudding rest before baking. This allows the bread to absorb the liquid and the flavors to meld together. You can let the bread pudding rest for 30 minutes at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the bread pudding warm. Bread pudding is best served warm, with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Brownie bread pudding with coconut chunks is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight treat. With its rich chocolate flavor and chewy texture, this bread pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
