Grilled Chocolate Sandwiches

Here’s a delightful take on the grilled sandwich. Because of the challah and the addition of eggs, butter, and milk, this dessert is richer than most, so it’s best served after a light meal.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
4 large slices challah or Italian bread (cut 3/4 inch thick)
4 ounces thin semisweet chocolate bar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large, shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk; set aside.

    Step 2

    Form two sandwiches with the bread and chocolate (break the chocolate as necessary to cover the bread without extending over the edges); dip both sides of the sandwiches in the egg mixture to coat.

    Step 3

    Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat; transfer the sandwiches to the skillet. Cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Cut each sandwich in half, and dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
