CHOCOLATE AND CINNAMON BREAD ON BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• For the bread pudding: Using a serrated knife, hollow out the boule. Cube the hollowed-out bread into 2-inch pieces and put in a large bowl. Using your fingers or a spoon, scrape any remaining bread from inside the boule to create a crusty bowl. Add any scraped bread to the bowl along with the bread cubes.
