Chocolate bread is a Dronet family tradition handed down for many generations. It’s known in French as Pain au chocolat. If you’ve heard of and like “breakfast for dinner,” then you should really try this as it is “dessert for breakfast.” I try to make this for all my family and friends at least once and surprising only the children appreciate it. Just this morning my daughter Annabeth asked, “When we have friends spend the night will you please make this?”
By David Dronet
2 pieces sliced bread
2 Tbsp powdered cocoa
3 Tbsp sugar (4 if you really like it sweet)
1/4 cup milk
1 Tbsp butter
In a saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add milk, sugar, and cocoa. Bring to a boil stirring constantly. Within a minute the mixture should thicken; remove from heat. Dip bread in the pot covering both sides like you would French toast. Serve hot with milk and napkins.
Chocolate Bread Grace:
Dear God, we thank you for keeping us fed
By giving us a dad who makes chocolate bread.
Amen
