directions
- Whisk the eggs and 1/3 cup sugar together in a large bowl. Whisk in the milk, 1 cup of heavy cream, espresso and vanilla. Transfer to a large measuring cup.
- Place four 1-cup oven-safe coffee cups or ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet. Grease cups with butter.
- Arrange 4 bread squares in the bottom of each cup, overlapping the pieces so they fit snugly. Sprinkle with 1 heaping tablespoon of the chocolate.
- Make a second layer using 4-5 bread pieces and top with remaining chocolate.
- Gently pour custard equally over the tops. Let set for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- Bake until pudding is set but still wobbly when shaken, 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 30 minutes or to room temperature.
- Make topping by beating together sugar and cream until soft peaks form. Dollop atop puddings, dust with cocoa and serve immediately.

<p>Hello from suburban Fort Worth, Texas! <br /> <br /><br /> <br />______________________________________________ <br /> <br /> <br />*My rating system defined* <br /> <br />Very few recipes really knock my socks off - I love to cook but am not a gourmet. <br />This said: <br /> <br />***** - met all my expectations in taste & appearance; directions were clear & easy to follow. <br /> <br />**** - fell slightly short of my expectations in taste or appearance or directions were faulty or not completely clear. <br /> <br />*** - mediocre taste and/or appearance; most likely a recipe that I would not use again without much modification. <br /> <br />** - taste and/or appearance was not to my liking; a recipe that I would not attempt to modify or use again. <br /> <br />* - taste was absolutely not to my liking (I can't imagine ever using this rating as I can generally tell by the ingredients if I will enjoy the finished product or not) <br /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/chefbanner1.jpg alt= /> <br /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j44/scmurray51/hagshat.jpg alt= /> <br /> <br /><br /> </p>
