Chocolate Stout Bread Pudding

I tried this recipe again with some left-over bread from Gumbo's. And it is amazing how differently it turned out during the making of it. This time, I reduced an entire 14 ounce can of Young's Double Chocolate Stout to a couple of ounces. I took the pan off of the burner and added 4 ounces of chocolate chips. After melting and mixing the chocolate into a smooth consistency, I added 3/4ths of a cup of brown sugar (whoops, it should have been 1/4). I then added a cup of cold heavy cream. And added three beaten eggs.

This time, the mixture had a consistency of pudding! It even tasted like it (yes, I risked salmonella poisoning to try it). It was pretty good. Because I didn't have enough dried bread cubes, I cooked the leftover mixture in the oven along with the bread pudding. And this is what it turned into. The volume almost doubled. The only negative thing about it was a little bit of water that seeped out during eating. This thing looks like a brownie. And I wonder if eating it with the soaked bread cubes will make it seem even more like a brownie...
