CREOLE BREAD PUDDING WITH WHISKEY SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Butter a large (11 x 8 1/2 x 3 inches) casserole dish and set aside. (Once in the oven, the casserole will sit inside a larger pan. A roasting pan would be good.) Mix the eggs, cream, and vanilla in a large bowl, and combine the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a separate bowl. This helps to evenly distribute the spices. Add the sugar mixture to the egg mixture, and combine thoroughly.
- Place the raisins in the bottom of the buttered casserole, and add the bread slices in a single layer. Gently pour the custard over the bread, making certain that all the bread thoroughly soaks up the custard. Cover the casserole with foil, place in a larger dish (the roasting pan, if that's what you've decided to use) partly filled with hot water, and bake for 2 1/2 hours. Remove the foil, add increase the oven temperature to 300 degrees. Bake for 1 hour more, or until the pudding is golden brown and slightly firm. Use a spoon to make sure the custard is fully cooked; it should be moist but no longer runny. If you're unsure whether it's done, remove it from the oven and let it cool while it remains sitting in the water bath; the carryover effect will keep it cooking but it will not overcook. Serve slightly warm with whiskey sauce.
- Bring the cream to a boil, combine the cornstarch and water, and add the mixture to the boiling cream, stirring constantly. Return to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, being careful not to burn the mixture. Add the sugar and bourbon, and stir. Let cool to room temperature.

The whiskey sauce is what makes this recipe incredible. It comes from my friend Beth, who is a great cook! She also uses nuts or pineapple for a variation.

Steps:
- For the pudding:.
- In a large bowl, mix beaten egg with vanilla, brown sugar, cream/milk with wire whisk until blended.
- Add raisins.
- Break up bread into 13x9x2 pan and pour the liquid (above) in slowly.
- When all the liquid is in, use either your clean hands or a spoon to squish the bread so that it falls apart and becomes mixed evenly with the liquid.
- It needs to be very wet and somewhat giggly.
- Bake in 375 degree oven for about 45 minutes to one hour- test at 45 minutes with a knife to see if the pudding is set up.
- The pudding should bounce back a little and the knife should come out almost clean from the center.
- The pudding will look very raised and poofy when you remove it from the oven.
- It will fall in a minute.
- For the Sauce:.
- In a small saucepan, melt one stick butter or margarine.
- Add brown sugar and stir constantly until melted.
- Add whiskey and stir again until heated.
- Double the recipe if you like a lot of sauce on the bread pudding, but use only ¾ cup of the whiskey.

WHISKEY-ORANGE BREAD PUDDING
A bottle of workmanlike Scotch or other whiskey can be as useful in the kitchen as it is on the bar, contributing alcohol and flavor to a range of recipes. A splash of it can sharpen a pan sauce for steak or pork, it's excellent flambé material, and it's especially compatible with dried fruit. I have soaked dried currants in whiskey to add to a simple chocolate cake. For this recipe, which takes its cue from the Blood and Sand cocktail made with orange juice and Scotch, I used the spirit to bolster a warm bread pudding laced with orange, both grated zest and candied peel, and finished with a marmalade and whiskey glaze. Supermarkets and fancy food shops, as well as online sources, sell candied orange peel. But absent that ingredient you can substitute slivered dried Turkish apricots.

Steps:
- Heavily butter a 6-cup square or round baking dish. Place milk and sugar in a saucepan, heat until it is about to simmer and remove from heat. Add orange zest and salt. Set aside until just warm, about 10 minutes. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the whisky. When the milk mixture is no longer hot, beat in the eggs.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place the bread pieces in a large bowl. Pour milk mixture over them, add candied peel and let soak 15 minutes. Place marmalade in a small saucepan, add remaining whisky and heat to dissolve whisky in the marmalade.
- Spoon half the bread mixture into a baking dish and smooth the surface. Cover with dabs of half the mascarpone. Spoon in remaining bread mixture. Place in the oven and bake 15 minutes. Brush with marmalade and whiskey glaze and continue baking until top is lightly brown and starts to become crusty, another 30 to 40 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool at least 30 minutes before serving. Beat remaining mascarpone with a whisk or fork for several minutes to smooth and loosen it. Serve alongside.

Tips:
- Use a variety of dates for a more complex flavor. Medjool dates are a good choice because they are large and have a soft, chewy texture. Deglet Noor dates are also a good option, as they are smaller and have a sweeter flavor.
- Soak the dates in hot water for 10 minutes before using them. This will help to soften them and make them easier to chop.
- Use a sharp knife to chop the dates. This will help to prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Be careful not to overcook the bread pudding. It should be cooked until it is just set in the center.
- Serve the bread pudding warm with the orange whiskey sauce.
Conclusion:
Bread pudding with dates and orange whiskey sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It is perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight meal. The bread pudding is moist and flavorful, and the orange whiskey sauce is the perfect complement. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
