Decadent and rich, this baked pudding is made from leftover Chocolate Donuts with Chocolate Chips. You could easily use any flavor donuts or any cake that you have as well. It is a great way to re-purpose those desserts into a brand new dish.
Today is my final installment for the week long Choctoberfest that we have been enjoying and also my post for this month's edition of Bundt Bakers.........
I hope you have been enjoying Choctoberfest, hosted by Allison of Triple Chocolate Kitchen and sponsored by Imperial Sugar and Divine Chocolate as much as I. Have you entered the raffle yet for the wonderful gift package? Head on over to my Welcome Post and do so now before you forget!
In fact, this recipe that I am sharing with you today is made from some of those donuts that were leftover from the Welcome Post.
When Sneha of Sneha's Recipe invited the Bundt Bakers to share a baked pudding recipe today, I knew that I wanted to make a chocolate bread pudding so that I could tie it in with Choctoberfest. When I got ready to make my pudding, I spied some of my donuts still sitting on the counter, along with the Chocolate Sandwich Cookies I shared Tuesday and the Pumpkin Brownies with Chocolate Swirl that I shared yesterday.
I kind of dreaded having 4 desserts up there on my counter, calling my name each time I walked past. So I packaged up the cookies and took them to a bake sale at my church. And then I decided that instead of using bread for my pudding, I would use the donuts. Boy, am I glad I did. This pudding is absolutely wonderful!!
Bread pudding was created because people had stale bread and, like me, hated wasting food. So they mixed it with milk, eggs and vanilla, popped it into the oven and out came a delicious concoction perfect for breakfast, brunch or dessert. So it made sense that any type of bread could be used. Donuts, muffins, cakes......any of these can be used in the same way and you will end up with a wonderful new dessert to feed your family. So pull those leftovers out of the freezer and use them in the recipe that I am sharing with you today.
First though, let's take a look at the other Baked Puddings being shared today.....

Bread pudding is a great way to repurpose stale bread but using doughnuts is an even more fabulous idea, Wendy. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stacy. My counter couldn't hold any more desserts LOL....
DeleteThis is a brilliant repurposing - that chocolate came out gorgeous!! I know what you mean about redistributing / reusing; the baked goods have over-flowethed (that's totally a word) at my house the past month or so!!
ReplyDeleteOver flowethed is definitely a word...a very cool word LOL
DeleteI've never heard of donut pudding but I love this idea! <3
ReplyDeleteThanks Farrah.
DeleteWaste not want not! Great use of leftovers. I'm sure I would have to buy some for this recipe. Chocolate doughnuts don't last long at my house. It looks rich and delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt sure was Sandra.
DeleteThis is soooo cool! And I know what you mean by having too many desserts calling my name. Especially this week!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a crazy week and now today I am making two more desserts!!! I need to get to the gym LOL.
DeleteWow Wendy! What a perfect way to use leftovers, we women who run the kitchen find ways to leftovers and this is the best.
ReplyDeleteWe certainly do Sneha. Waste not, want not.
DeleteI made this recipe, but I confess I made a few changes: I wanted a cake not a pudding.
ReplyDelete5 egg whites beat to soft peaks with 1/2 tsp cream of tartar. Set aside.
240gm sour cream and
5 egg yolks beat well
Add I tsp baking soda. Beat
Add in 8 broken up doughnuts (I had chocolate and vanilla glazed Dunkin’)
Beat well until homogeneous
Add in 12 oz melted chocolate chips
Add in egg white foam
Bake in greased bunt 350 x60 min
Cool
Glaze with your favorite chocolate glaze
Y-U-M
Sounds wonderful. Glad my recipe inspired you to make such a delicious sounding dessert.
