Additional Information
Don't be tempted to skip the toasting part- this actually helps the bread and butter pudding absorb the custard mixture. Try and find sliced brioche with the chocolate chips baked into the loaf- but worst way use plain sliced brioche and add chocolate chips amongst the slices when you add the custard.
