MILK CHOCOLATE BREAD PUDDING:Whisk together eggs, milk and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Add cocoa, sugar, brown sugar and chocolate chips. Stir to combine. Gently fold in bread cubes. Allow mixture to sit for 10-15 minutes. PREHEAT oven to 350˚F (180˚C). LIGHTLY grease a 9” X 13” (3.5 L) baking dish. Spoon chocolate mixture into dish. Bake in pre heated oven for 1 hour or until the center is set and the top is slightly crusty. CARAMEL SAUCE:COMBINE sugar, water and corn syrup in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Using a wet pastry brush carefully wash any sugar residue from the insides of the pot to prevent burning. Boil 5-7 minutes or until the caramel reaches a golden amber colour.
