Instructions:

Prepare the Bread:

• Cut the bread slices into small cubes or tear them into pieces.
• Grease a baking dish with butter or oil and spread the bread pieces evenly in the dish.

Prepare the Custard Mixture:

• In a small bowl, mix the custard powder and cocoa powder with a little bit of the milk to make a smooth paste.
• In a saucepan, heat the remaining milk over medium heat.
• Add sugar and a pinch of salt to the milk and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Gradually add the custard-cocoa paste to the hot milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
• Cook the mixture until it thickens to a custard-like consistency, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and add the vanilla essence.

Assemble the Pudding:

• Pour the hot custard mixture over the bread pieces in the baking dish, ensuring all the bread is soaked.
• Gently press the bread pieces down with a spoon to ensure they absorb the custard.

Optional:

• Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the pudding for extra chocolate flavor.

Bake:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Bake the pudding in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly golden.

Cool and Serve:

• Allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving.
• You can serve it warm or chilled, as per your preference.
