How to Make Butter Rum Yum
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a blender, combine ginger, cinnamon, cloves (if using), 2 cups milk, eggs, and 1/2 cup shredded coconut. Blend until completely smooth.
- Pour the blended mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add heavy cream, 3/4 cup packed brown sugar, vanilla extract, melted butter, and remaining 1/2 cup shredded coconut.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Add the cubed bread and stir gently until the bread is evenly moistened.
- Pour the bread mixture into a greased 10x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until the pudding is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
- While the pudding is baking, prepare the butter rum raisin sauce: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup water and raisins. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and let the raisins soak until plump (about 10-15 minutes).
- Strain the water from the raisins into a heatproof measuring cup. Add water if needed to measure 1/2 cup of liquid.
- Return the liquid to the saucepan. Add remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons butter.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Remove from heat and stir in rum and plumped raisins.
- Keep warm until serving.
- Prepare the sweetened coconut cream: In a small bowl, combine sour cream, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- To serve, cut the pudding into 12 equal pieces.
- Spoon some butter rum raisin sauce over each serving.
- Top with a dollop of sweetened coconut cream and sprinkle with shredded coconut.
- Turn on some Caribbean music and enjoy!
