Ingredients

• 8 cups day-old bread (e.g., challah or brioche), cubed
• 1.5 cups fresh raspberries
• 3 quarters semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 6 pieces large eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing crock pot)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Grease the inside of the crock pot with butter to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Spread half of the bread cubes evenly in the bottom of the crock pot.

Step 3

Sprinkle half of the raspberries and half of the chocolate chips over the bread layer.

Step 4

Add the remaining bread cubes, followed by the rest of the raspberries and chocolate chips, layering evenly.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Pour the egg and milk mixture evenly over the bread layers in the crock pot, ensuring all bread pieces are saturated.

Step 7

Gently press down on the bread mixture with a spatula to help everything soak up the liquid.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 3 hours, or until the strata is set and no longer runny in the center.

Step 9

Turn off the crock pot and let it cool slightly for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Step 10

To serve, scoop the strata into bowls and optionally dust with powdered sugar for garnish.
