Both the pudding and sauce are made in the microwave. I am on a diet now but this is here for a reward when I reach my goal. Enjoy. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
2 eggs |
1 cup milk |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 1/2 cups french bread, day old, cut into 1-inch cubes |
1/4 cup raisins |
1/2 cup sugar |
3/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons bourbon (or rum) |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 tablespoons butter |
Directions:
1. For the bread pudding, in a 1 quart casserole, micro-melt the butter for 30-40 seconds. 2. Add eggs and beat well. 3. Blend in milk, sugar, raisins, vanilla and salt. 4. Stir in bread cubes and let stand for 5 minutes. 5. Gently stir the mixture and micro-cook, uncovered until set, about 5 1/2 to 6 minutes, stirring after 3 minutes. 6. For the bourbon sauce, in a 4 cup, glass cooking container, stir together the sugar and cornstarch; stir in water. 7. Cook, uncovered, until thick and bubbly, about 3 minutes. Cook 1 minute more and stir in butter and bourbon or rum. This makes about 1 1/4 cups sauce. 8. Serve the warm bread pudding with this sauce. |
