Chocolate and orange brioche pudding

This Chocolate and Orange Brioche Pudding is a delightful and indulgent dessert combining rich dark chocolate and the refreshing zest of orange. The brioche soaks up the creamy mixture, creating a beautifully textured pudding that is perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

1.50 cups milk (1% fat)
360g
1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g
2 tbsp butter
30g
1/2 cup dark chocolate
120g
1 cup light sour cream
230g
3 eggs
150g
1/4 cup sugar
50g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
2 tbsp orange zest
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oven and Pan:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a medium-sized baking dish with a little butter to prevent sticking.
2. Heat the Milk:
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it's just about to boil. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour and sugar to remove any lumps and ensure even distribution.
4. Melt the Chocolate and Butter:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and butter. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until both are fully melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
5. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, light sour cream, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth. Gradually add the slightly cooled milk, melted chocolate, and butter mixture, stirring continuously to create a smooth batter.
6. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
Slowly add the flour and sugar mixture to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Stir in the orange zest until evenly distributed.
7. Prepare the Brioche (Optional):
If desired, you can add chunks or slices of brioche to the batter to create a richer texture. Simply tear the brioche into bite-sized pieces and fold them into the batter until well incorporated.
8. Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon. Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is lightly golden.
9. Cool and Serve:
Allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
10. Store Leftovers:
Store any leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can be reheated gently in the microwave or eaten cold, depending on your preference.

Tips:

- Use fresh orange zest to maximize the citrus flavor.

- Ensure the dark chocolate is of good quality for the best taste.

- Allow the brioche to soak in the milk mixture for at least 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors fully.

- If you don't have light sour cream, you can substitute with Greek yogurt.

- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent experience.

Enjoy your homemade Chocolate and Orange Brioche Pudding warm or at room temperature.
