Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups 1% low-fat milk
  • 1 cup hot strong brewed coffee
  • 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup egg substitute
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Dash of salt
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 8 cups (1-inch) cubed white bread (about 10 ounces)
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°.

Combine low-fat milk, hot coffee, and dark brown sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer, stirring until brown sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, and cool to room temperature. Add egg substitute, vanilla extract, salt, and egg whites, stirring with a whisk. Combine egg mixture and bread in a large bowl, tossing gently to coat. Let stand 30 minutes.

Spoon half of bread mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray, and sprinkle evenly with chocolate chips. Top chocolate chips with remaining bread mixture. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until center is set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
