COCONUT CREAM BREAD PUDDING



Coconut Cream Bread Pudding image

A creamy and decadent coconut bread pudding that everyone will love!

Provided by Paula Deen

Time 30m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (16 to 20 inch) loaf cut into 1-inch cubes French bread
for dish butter
4 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
2 (13 1/2 oz) cans unsweetened coconut milk
1 (13 1/2 oz) can cream of coconut
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups plus 1/2 cup, toasted for garnish sweetened flaked coconut
1 pinch mace
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Lightly butter the bottom of a 9-inch square flameproof baking dish. Arrange the bread cubes evenly in the dish. In a large bowl, whisk together the yolks, whole eggs, coconut milk, cream of coconut, salt, nutmeg and mace. Stir in 1 cup of the coconut flakes. Pour the custard over the bread cubes, pressing the bread cubes gently to soak up the custard. Let the mixture stand for 1 hour, covered, in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat the oven to 325º.
  • Sprinkle the top of the pudding with the remaining 1/2 cup coconut flakes. Cover the baking dish with foil, poking a few holes in the top to release the steam. Put the baking dish into a roasting pan on the oven rack. Pour hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the pudding is firm to the touch, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 15 minutes more. Remove the baking dish from the water bath and run it under the broiler, at least 4 inches from the heat, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Let the pudding cool completely. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
  • Pour the sauce over individual pudding servings, as desired. Top with toasted coconut and serve.
  • Chocolate Velvet Sauce:
  • Make the chocolate sauce right before serving the pudding. Put the chocolate chips in a medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer over low heat; immediately remove it from the heat and pour it over the chocolate chips. Whisk until smooth.
  • Notes:
  • The chocolate sauce can be reheated in a saucepan over low heat. Add more cream, 1 tablespoon at a time as needed, to return it to the desired consistency.

Throwdown's Chocolate-Coconut Bread Pudding with Passion Fruit Sauce image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
17 ounces brioche (crust removed), cut into 1 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 cup heavy cream
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/4 cups pure cane sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (Valhrona Manjari 64 percent), finely chopped
4 whole large eggs
2 large egg yolks
Chocolate Ganache
1 cup desiccated coconut
3/4 cup passion fruit juice
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons white rum
1/2 vanilla bean
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup coconut milk
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • For the Ganache:
  • In a small bowl place the chocolate. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat bring the cream to a simmer and then pour over the chocolate. Let the chocolate mixture sit for 30 seconds and then whisk until smooth, keep warm.
  • For the Bread Pudding:
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment and add the diced brioche. Drizzle with the melted butter and toss to coat. Bake in the oven and lightly golden brown. Removing and tossing several times. This should be repeated for about 12 minutes. Once the bread has evenly browned, remove and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile in a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the cream, coconut milk, sugar and vanilla bean and seeds in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer and whisk until the sugar has dissolved. Add the chopped bittersweet chocolate and whisk until melted. Strain the mixture into a medium size bowl.
  • In a separate medium bowl whisk together the eggs and yolks and slowly add the warm chocolate mixture, whisking as you add.
  • Place half of the brioche cubes in a single layer in the bottom of a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Pour 1/2 of the custard mixture over the bread and half of the ganache. Sprinkle with half of the coconut. Press down on the bread, allowing the liquid to soak in. Place the remaining bread cubes over the top, add the remaining custard and ganache and again, press down to completely submerge the bread.
  • Top with the remaining coconut, cover and let sit for at least 30 minutes before baking. While the bread is sitting continue to check and press down on the bread so that it is completely submerged with the custard mixture.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Uncover the bread pudding, and place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Fill the outer roasting pan with warm water until it comes halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  • Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake until the sides are slightly puffy and the center is slightly set (but still jiggles a bit).
  • For the Passion Fruit Sauce:
  • Into a small saucepan cut the passion fruit in half and scoop out centers (including the seeds). Add the sugar, orange juice and rum and let cook over high heat until sugar has dissolved and sauce has thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and chill in the refrigerator.
  • For the anglaise:
  • Split vanilla bean. In a small heavy saucepan bring milks and vanilla bean half just to a boil and remove pan from heat. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean halves into milk and reserve pod for another use. In a bowl whisk together yolks and sugar. Add milk in a stream, whisking, and transfer custard to saucepan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, stirring, until thickened slightly and an instant-read thermometer registers 170 degrees F. Pour custard through a fine sieve into a metal bowl set in a large bowl of ice and cold water and cool, stirring occasionally, until cold. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, its surface covered with plastic wrap.
  • Remove the pan to a baking rack and let sit for 15 minutes. Spoon some of the coconut anglaise into a bowl and drizzle with the passion fruit sauce. Top with a large scoop of the bread pudding and serve.

COCONUT CREAM DREAM DESSERT



Coconut Cream Dream Dessert image

This is my modified version of the classic dirt salad. My son LOVES golden OREOs®. I was going to make the dirt salad but didn't have original chocolate cookies, so I used golden ones and it was AMAZING! Better than coconut cream pie.
