Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding (Nigel Slater)
Ingredients
butter, for greasing
250g/9oz stale bread, cut into 3cm/1¼in cubes
100g/3½oz chocolate chips
3 free-range eggs
40g/1½oz soft light brown sugar
2 tbsp dark rum
125ml/4fl oz double cream
500ml/17fl oz full-fat milk
4 tsp demerara sugar
Preparation method
1.Preheat the oven to 170C/325F/Gas 3. Grease an ovenproof dish lightly with butter.
2.Tip in the stale bread cubes. Toss in the chocolate chips to spread evenly among the bread cubes.
3.Whisk together the eggs, light soft brown sugar, rum, double cream and milk. Pour this mixture over the bread and press the cubes down to coat them in the liquid.
4.Leave all this to soak for 20 minutes, then sprinkle with the demerara sugar and put straight into the oven for 40-50 minutes. (If your oven browns unevenly, turn the dish around halfway through cooking.) The pudding is ready when the custard has set and has a light wobble.
5.Let the dish stand for a while before serving - if you can. The smell as it bakes is almost overwhelming and it can be hard to wait once it is out of the oven.

Tea Bread
Ingredients
8 oz (225 g) raisins
8 oz (225 g) currants
8 oz (225 g) sultanas
4 oz (110g) whole candied peel, cut into ¼ inch (5 mm) pieces
8 oz (225 g) demerara sugar
10 fl oz (275 ml) Lapsang Souchong, Earl Grey or any other hot tea
1 large egg lightly beaten with 2 tablespoons milk
1 lb (450 g) self-raising flour
Begin this the evening before by placing all the fruits, including the candied peel, in a bowl, then dissolve the sugar in the hot tea, pour this over the fruits, cover the bowl and leave it overnight so the fruits become plump and juicy.
The next day, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 3, 325°F (170°C) add the beaten egg mixture to the bowl containing the fruits. Then sift in the flour and give everything a really good mixing. Now divide the mixture between prepared loaf tins and bake them in the centre of the oven for 1¼-1½ hours, until they feel springy in the centre. Then straight away, loosen them with a palette knife and turn them out on to a wire rack to cool.

75g cocoa
400g caster sugar
11x142ml pot of sour cream
2 eggs
1 tbsp real vanilla extract

Pour the Guinness into a saucepan, add butter and heat, until melted, when you should whisk in the cocoa and sugar
Beat the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla and add to the pan. Whisk in the flour and bicarbonate of soda.
Pour the cake batter into the tin and bake for 45 mins to an hour. Leave to cool completely in the tin on a cooling rack.
Whip the cream cheese, until smooth, sieve over the icing sugar, then beat together. Add the cream and beat again. Ice the top of the cake so it resembles the frothy top of the famous pint.
