Chocolate Chip Croissant Casserole
Chocolate Chip Croissant Casserole is a baked breakfast or dessert casserole that combines torn croissant pieces with a custardy mixture of cream cheese, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla along with semi-sweet chocolate chips. The dish is soaked briefly before baking to absorb the custard, then covered and baked to a soft, creamy texture with melted chocolate pockets throughout. It's an indulgent, rich dish with a tender bite and sweet chocolate accents.
