This old-fashioned treat is so warm and comforting on chilly evenings. Pumpkin gives it great seasonal appeal, and the white chocolate sauce makes it even more irresistible.Shirley Glaab, Hattiesburg, Mississippi Ingredients:
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
1-1/2 cups canned pumpkin |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
1 cup half-and-half cream |
2/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
5 cups cubed day-old french bread |
white chocolate sauce: |
8 ounces white baking chocolate, chopped |
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream |

1. In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Add bread cubes; stir to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
