heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a rectangular casserole dish with 1 tablespoon (14 grams) of butter.

Cut the chocolate pound cake into cubes and fill the baking dish about three-quarters full, using approximately 10 to 12 cups of cake cubes.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

Pour the egg mixture over the chocolate pound cake cubes, ensuring they are evenly soaked.

Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the mixture.

Let it sit for a few minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until set and slightly puffed.

Remove from the oven and cover with the lid to retain heat and moisture until ready to serve.
