Ingredients

• 4 cups (cubed) Brownies
• 2 cups Milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon (for greasing) Butter
• 2 tablespoons (for garnish, optional) Powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with the butter.

Step 2

Cut your brownies into 1-inch cubes and spread them evenly in the greased baking dish.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, and sugar. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Do not let it boil.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and salt.

Step 5

Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to avoid scrambling the eggs. This creates your custard base.

Step 6

Pour the prepared custard evenly over the brownie cubes in the baking dish, ensuring all the brownie pieces are soaked. Press down lightly with a spatula to help the custard absorb into the brownies.

Step 7

Let the pudding sit for 10 minutes to further soak the brownies.

Step 8

Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is slightly golden.

Step 9

Allow the pudding to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Optionally, sprinkle powdered sugar on top for garnish.

Step 10

Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
