This is one of those things I've been meaning to make for ages, but never quite got round to it. I've been freezing my almost-stale bread for a while now in anticipation of it, but now I have an abundance of the stuff and I needed to make bread and butter pudding so that I could free up space in my freezer.
I know people say this all the time, but it's surprising that adding custard ingredients and a few spices to bread can transform it into a really tasty and satisfying pudding. The number of ways in which you could vary this are never-ending, too. You could swap the raisins for chocolate chips, take the cocoa out of the custard mix to make a plain bread and butter pudding, add some mint for a mint chocolate pudding, add some peanut butter... or peanut butter and chocolate chips... maybe even spike it with something? That way, using up stale bread will never be boring, and you'll never feel like you have to make croutons (and let's be honest, how often are you going to eat those croutons?) again.
If I were you, I would find some stale bread (even fresh bread will do) and make some of this immediately. A hot, steaming pudding is the perfect remedy to a cold night, and there are plenty of those coming up. The recipe is based on the one from The Complete Book Of Baking by Carole Clements, but I tweaked it a bit to add a few more spices and the chocolate.
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C and grease an oven proof dish.
Butter the bread and quarter the slices. Layer them over the bottom of the dish, sprinkling raisins between the layers.
Put the double cream, milk, cocoa powder, eggs, sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon in a jug or mixing bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour over the bread slices and tuck in any bread that's sticking out. Leave to soak for 15 mins.
Bake in the oven for 30-40 mins, or until set.

I'm entering this pudding into November's We Should Cocoa challenge. The challenge was started by Choclette of Chocolate Log Blog and Chele of Chocolate Teapot, and is hosted this month by Nazima of Franglais Kitchen. Nazima has chosen bread for this month's theme, so I suppose a pudding made of chocolate and bread fits in reasonably well.
Chocolate bread and butter pudding sounds like a perfect comfort bake to me. I was amused that you had frozen the perfectly stale bread for the pudding ready for the time you wanted to make it! very organised! |
Realise your greatness - He uri koe nō te hunga Atua - nōu te ao.
At Te Kōpuku High, we firmly believe that we have all inherited a unique blend of greatness from our tupuna / ancestors.
The 'greatness' you have inherited - Tōu Atuatanga.
During enrolment, students and their whānau are encouraged to help us understand the student’s unique blend of greatness and how to make the most of these attributes. The student’s whakapapa - those layers that form an important part of who we are in the world, remind us of our cultural heritage and language, a lineage of great navigators, innovators and chiefs.

This design takes inspiration from a city station such as Newcastle or York. Bay platforms and a range of sidings to the top right mean that plenty of locomotives can be accommodated, each taking turns to run regional express services from this busy railway hub. The bay to the lower end of the station could be used for Motorail or parcels services, breaking up the staple diet of passenger trains. |
The latest copy of the student magazine Critic caused a stir this week after its controversial “The Menstruation” issue.
The magazine was quickly removed from the Otago University campus on Monday night after staff deemed the cartoon cover to be inappropriate.
It wasn’t long before a Dunedin local listed a copy of the free magazine on Trade Me for a cool $40. This is a great example of one of our members trying to make a bit of money and some noise about an issue that's getting a lot of attention in the media.
With over 4,100 views, bidding for this piece of student media history has reached $80 and the auction closes on Tuesday. |
A Koi Pond provides a peaceful and quiet place to help you escape from the stress of everyday life. It is also the perfect way to add beauty to any outdoor space. But having a Koi pond does require maintenance to keep it healthy and attractive.
There are so many products available to use in water gardens that are quite overwhelming. Special care is specific to each pond. With the proper care from the beginning, you can avoid costly complications later on. There are effective precautionary steps you can take to keep your Koi pond healthy year around.
Springtime is an important time to get your pond going in the right direction. Anything you did in the winter can be un-done in the spring. Turn on the pump etc.
When the water temperature reaches a contact 50 degrees, start feeding the fish again. A cold weather food is important until the temperature reaches 60 degrees then move to a regular feeding schedule.
Remove any leaves or debris as well as vacuum the sludge from the bottom of the pond.
Pump the water from the pond into a large container and then place the fish into the container filled with the pond water. Once the pond is clean, pump the water back in and then put the fish into the pond.
Begin cleaning the filter as needed.
Remove any dead foliage. Cut plants that have gone brown with age. This reduces buildup and allows the plants more room to grow.
Feed the fish but don’t overfeed.
It’s important to keep the falling leaves from ending up in the pool causing decay. This decay will throw off the ecological balance of the water garden.
Installing leaf netting over the pond will make it easier to maintain.
Water temperature is dropping so it is important to feed the fish less. Once the temperature drops below 50 degrees – stop feeding until spring.
If you have a warm winter day, and the pond begins to warm up, do not be tempted to feed the fish.
Prepare the pond. If you have a small or shallow pond, you may need a floating deicer to keep it above freezing.
If the temperature drops below 40 degrees, reduce the circulation of water by turning off the pump and draining it.
Caring for your Koi pond is both an art and science. Maintenance for your Koi pond changes with the seasons. The health and survival of your plants and fish depend on upon this proper maintenance and care. Art of the Yard can help you build and maintain a beautiful Koi pond protecting your investment. |
The World Poker Tour announced on Wednesday that it has inked a partnership with partypoker LIVE to host as many as seven events in Europe and Canada for the next four years. The first event in the series will be at the Playground Poker Club in Montreal in October 2018 in conjunction with the WPT Montreal stop at the same time.
The rest of the schedule will be revealed at a later date, but the World Poker Tour has said that locations will include Sochi, Russia and the Dusk Till Dawn poker club in the UK. Both the WPT and partypoker have already worked together at the Playground Poker Club and Dusk Till Dawn, having previously hosted the partypoker WPT Canadian Spring Championship, partypoker.net WPT Montreal, and partypoker.net WPT Playground at the former and partypoker WPT UK at the latter.
The World Poker Tour is proud to partner with partypoker LIVE on this new, four-year global initiative. The partnership allows the WPT to continue its dedication of bringing world-class poker to people’s lives, and we are honored to have John Duthie and the entire team at partypoker LIVE sharing in this value. Together with partypoker LIVE, we look forward to elevating the game for all levels.
partypoker LIVE, as the name would make one assume, is the live tournament extension of partypoker. It has also previously established relationships with the venues listed above. The World Series of Poker Circuit Playground – of which partypoker LIVE is a part – is currently running, MILLIONS UK will be held at Dusk Till Dawn in a month, and Sochi has been featured multiple times on the tour.
Partypoker online players will be able to use partypoker LIVE Dollars acquired in satellites at the live events; that the events will be co-branded with the World Poker Tour will have no effect on this. LIVE Dollars are pretty cool – they can be used for pretty much anything having to do with the partypoker LIVE stops, including buy-ins, hotel rooms, and travel. |
