Chocolate, Baileys, Brioche Bread and butter pudding

Now generally as a rule I'm not a pudding or dessert kinda guy, hence the tendency for my recipes to be mainly seafood!!
But my philosophy is, " if you're gonna have one, have a goodun" so this recipe I'm going to share with you guys is definitely a goodun! It's my version of the classic bread and butter pudding, but bares absolutely no resemblance to those, stodgy, no flavour, over cooked, ridiculous offerings you see on offer in places,
My recipe is a total dieters nightmare! But I reckon that all things in moderation, there are a few differences to the usual pudding, but I've only added them to enhance this fantastic pudding
Firstly I use Brioche, a great sweet bread, not dense which allows the custard to soak in, I use white chocolate, you don't have to, I like to add it as a over the top decadent extra! I'm never far away from alcohol when cooking and this recipe gets a good old glug of Baileys liquor!! Well why not? Rather than tipping cold milk and egg mixture over the bread, I make a warm custard which I find soaks into my brioche better, You'll also notice I don't use dried fruit, but by all means add a sprinkle between the layers
You have been warned! Once you've made and tasted this! You'll never make it any other way again
