Chocolate and hazelnut naturally go together. But, adding in crispy prosciutto takes it up several notches. Seriously, you have the chocolate, the crunchy, the nutty, and the salty all baked together and topped with hazelnut cream. What could be better?

Bookmark this and serve it to holiday guests. They will talk about it for a long time.

This is very moist just the way a bread pudding ought to be and very easy to make. The whipped cream turns this into a special dessert. I like the idea of individual sized cups as this makes it easy to feed a crowd.
