Spread cubes on a baking sheet. Bake at 350?F for 5 to 10 minutes or until lightly toasted; set aside. Spread 1 tbsp. butter in the bottom of an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish and add toasted bread cubes. Heat half & half, remaining butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan, stirring until chocolate is melted and mixture is almost boiling; let cool for 10 minutes. Whisk together eggs and sugar in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in chocolate mixture, mixing until well blended; stir in Kahlúa and cinnamon.
