Makeover - How We Did It

We've took a classic chocolate bread pudding and gave it a makeover. We used fat-free milk instead of whole milk, decreased the amount of chocolate, and used egg whites instead of whole eggs. We also added PHILADELPHIA 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese to the milk mixture to create a creamy texture. Not only does this warm pudding taste great, but it also saves you 40 calories and 4 g of fat per serving when compared to the classic recipe.

better if cooked like a 2 inch thick bread pudding English style but good. I prefer raisins to chocolate.

My first time having bread pudding..it had good flavor but the texture was a little soggy. I don't know if it came out right or...but overall was pretty good, especially w/ fruit on the side.

This was ok. My kids liked it ( Not much considering their toddlers :0) As for the rest of us . It was to soggy I dont know what went wrong. I think I'll just keep to the family recipe .

very easy to make. had to cook about 15 minutes longer than the recipe suggested. covered with foil to keep top from over-browning. used double-fiber wheat bread and turned out great.

This was super easy, and the ingredients were things I already had in hand. My whole family devoured it within hours! I used 1/2 cup of chocolate chips instead, and it looked much prettier, and still delicious. I will definitely be making this again!

The pudding came out delicious and sweet. It lasted awhile in my house since my roommates didn't like bread pudding much.

I made this for my family who came into town.It went over very well. I used chocolate chips instead of the semi sweet chocolate and it made it even more pretty! Used whip cream and ice cream and everyone loved it!

Unbelieveable tasting! Very good. I was looking for Cinnamon bread pudding that my mom had made when we were little.. I came upon this recipe, little different, so we tried it. Better than old recipe... I will make it again to share with my mom and sisters to see what they will think of it.

For a twist, I added a couple of bananas (I used a bit of starch to offset the moisture) it was sooo good and added a bit more to the nutrient value as well.
