NEW ORLEANS-STYLE BREAD PUDDING
From my favorite dessert cookbook: "Gooey Desserts-The Joy of Decadence" by Elaine Corn She states: My mother goes to conferences now and then with my father. When the men sequester themselves, she and some other spouses attend cooking classes. During one such confab in New Orleans, she took a class from Joe Cahn at the New Orleans School of Cooking, and brought home this incomparable recipe. My friend Kathleen, who is also my chief bread-pudding tester, warns anyone who has just partaken of this dessert to wait a while before driving. "God forbid you might have to take a Breathalyzer test! Whew!

Steps:
- For the Bread Pudding:.
- Butter a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. Set oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine all ingredients. Mixture should be very moist but not soupy. Pour into the buttered dish and bake 1 hour and 15 minutes until top is golden brown. Serve warm with Joe's Whiskey Sauce.
- For Whiskey Sauce:.
- Using a hand held mixer, cream butter and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, beating until all butter is absorbed. Remove from heat and blend in yolks. Pour in bourbon gradually, stirring constantly. Sauce will thicken as it cools. Serve warm on warm bread pudding.
Tips:
- Use stale bread: Stale bread will absorb more of the custard mixture and result in a richer, more flavorful bread pudding.
- Don't overmix the custard: Overmixing the custard will make it tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This will help to prevent the bread pudding from drying out and will result in a more evenly cooked pudding.
- Let the bread pudding cool before serving: This will allow the pudding to set and will make it easier to slice.
