Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Tear the day-old croissants into bite-sized pieces and spread evenly in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the torn croissants.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissant and chocolate layers, saturating well.
Press down on the croissant pieces to ensure they are submerged and let sit for 10 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
Cool for a few minutes before slicing, and optionally dust with powdered sugar before serving.
