Instructions: Separate eggs.

Chop chocolate and butter.

Heat milk with chocolate with butter, stirring over low heat until melted. Remove from heat, stir in egg yolks, sugar and 1/2 the breadcrumbs and mix well. Stir in remaining breadcrumbs, cinnamon and vanilla to taste.

Whisk egg whites to a stiff froth, fold them into the mixture at the last minute, then pour mixture into a well buttered 1.25 litre pudding mould. Secure with a tight fitting lid or foil.

Steam for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until the pudding is well risen and feels firm to touch.

Serve with chocolate sauce or custard.
