- Brush a rectangular deep ovenproof dish with butter to grease lightly.
- Combine the sugar, water and golden syrup in a small saucepan. Stir over a low heat until the sugar dissolves. Then add the cocoa powder and stir until it dissolves. Remove from the heat, and leave a few minutes to cool slightly.
- Place the milk and eggs in a large jug and whisk thoroughly. Add the cocoa mixture and combine well.
- Place 10 bread triangles in 2 rows of 5, overlapping slightly in the baking dish. Pour a third of the cocoa mixture over the top, ensuring that all the bread is soaked with the mixture. Repeat layering with the remaining bread and cocoa to make 2 more layers. Use the back of a spoon to press the bread down to allow the cocoa mixture to soak through.
- Cover and set aside at room temperature for approx 30 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the mixture.
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Sprinkle the pudding lightly with the extra sugar and bake for 40 minutes in the oven, until crisp on top.

Yumo, this is delicious. I used brown sugar, it wasn't too sweet, great alone or with ice cream. Thanks. - 31 Oct 2010
