Throwback Thursday, White Chocolate Butterscotch Bread Pudding
This bread pudding is a wonderful comfort food dessert for Fall
Challah bread cubes are baked with butterscotch
and white chocolate chips in a creamy sauce
and topped with caramel after baking
Cut the bread* into one inch cubes and put them in a 9″ x 13″ baking dish
with the white chocolate and butterscotch chips
*You might not need the entire loaf,
just use enough to fill up the baking dish
Mix the sweetened condensed milk,
Half and Half cream, sugar and extracts together
and pour it over the bread cubes
Once you pour the milk and egg mixture over all,
pat it down with a spoon to submerge and soak the the bread
Cover pudding and refrigerate it for 8 hours or overnight
so bread can soak up the liquids
Uncover and bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes
until set in the middle, but be careful not to overbake
When it comes out of the oven,
top the hot bread pudding with caramel bits
and cover it up so they will melt a little
You can pour additional caramel sauce over it when serving if you like

That Challah bread loaf is beautiful. It’s almost a shame to cut it up into squares.

OMG, Jenna! This sounds amazingly delicious! My husband used to be a huge fan of bread pudding. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve made it since he passed away, and that was eight years ago in June. I’ll have to give this a try. I’m wondering if it would freeze, because it obviously makes a lot, although maybe I could cut it in half. Saving!
Thank you Pattie, it’s hard to be butterscotch, caramel and white chocolate! I hope you enjoy!
Sounds so decadent Jenna! I love bread pudding for the ease of prep and tasty results. Happy Tuesday ♥
Yes, it’s dangerously good!
