Chocolate-Hazelnut Bread Pudding image

From Cooking Light Magazine. Vanilla low-fat ice cream melts over the warm bread pudding to form a sauce. If you have whole hazelnuts, toast them at 350 degrees F. for 8-10 minutes, or until the skins are loosened. To rub off the papery skins, roll the nuts in a clean dish towel. Then chop as needed. Prep time does not include chill time.
