How to Make Bread Pudding With White Chocolate Brandy Sauce
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Prepare the Bread Pudding:** In a large bowl, soak 1 loaf (about 1 pound) of day-old challah or brioche bread, cubed into 1-inch pieces, in 2 cups of whole milk for 15 minutes.
- Add 1 cup granulated sugar, 4 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the soaked bread. Stir gently until well combined.
- Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish (or individual ramekins) with 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
- Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the top evenly with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.
- **Prepare the White Chocolate Brandy Sauce:** In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup heavy cream and 6 ounces of finely chopped white chocolate.
- Bring the cream to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and stir until the white chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of brandy (optional, but highly recommended!).
- Serve the warm bread pudding topped generously with the luscious white chocolate brandy sauce.
