With its deep, dark color and intense chocolate flavor, this easy bread pudding is wonderfully indulgent—and it happens to be whole grain too. The key to that rich color and flavor is Dutch process cocoa; this kind of cocoa is processed in a way to reduce its acidity, resulting in a smoother cocoa taste with deeper, earthier notes. You’ll find it near the regular cocoa at the supermarket, which you can certainly use, too, if you prefer. Garnish with fresh berries and mint, if desired.
