If you want to add molten chocolatey goodness for your next baked treat, try out this recipe for Nutella Bread Pudding! Buttery croissants or hearty bread take a bath in a Nutella-enriched custard and bake until fragrant and gooey.

Here this Nutella Bread Pudding puts its short list of ingredients to work. The bread or croissants are torn up and spread evenly into a prepared baking dish. Next, the Nutella custard is whipped up and poured over the bread.

A short fifteen soak time allows the custard to penetrate into every nook and cranny of the bead. For this recipe, the bread pudding is initially baked for thirty minutes (covered) and then for an additional ten minutes (uncovered).

The only requirement for this Nutella Bread Pudding is a bit of cold, creamy vanilla ice cream. Here, the combination of the warm chocolate bread pudding and the ice cream is the ultimate comfort of a dessert that will satisfy any chocolate lover, guaranteed.

The Nutella custard soaks thoroughly into the bread, making it a deeply and thoroughly chocolatey bite.
