WHITE CHOCOLATE BREAD PUDDING WITH RASPBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE



White Chocolate Bread Pudding With Raspberry and White Chocolate image

This delicious bread pudding is served at Nordstrom's Cafe bistro and is also featured on their website. I get compliments on it each time and requests for the recipe so I thought I'd post it up here. Enjoy!

Provided by Pamelamb

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups heavy whipping cream
2 cups milk (I prefer whole!)
1 cup sugar
3 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
6 large eggs, plus
12 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 loaf day old French baguette, 24-inch cut into 1/2-inch inch slices (artisan bread works well too!)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons orange zest
2 cups fresh raspberries (thawed) or 2 cups frozen raspberries (thawed)
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup white chocolate chips
5 tablespoons unsalted butter (I prefer sweet cream butter!)

Steps:

  • Bread pudding:.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 9"X12"X2" baking pan including the sides. Line bottom of pan with parchment paper.
  • Combine cream, sugar, milk in saucepan over medium heat. Stir until hot. Add chocolate morsels and stir until chocolate is melted. Set aside so it can cool slightly.
  • Whisk eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla. Gradually pour the cream mixture into the egg mixture and whisk until smooth. Be careful that the cream mixture isn't too hot or the eggs will curdle. Tempering the eggs is very useful in this step.
  • Lay about half of the bread slices in the baking pan and pour about half of the cream mixture, allowing it to soak up the liquid. Next, layer the remaining bread slices on top and pour more mixture over it. You might need to press down the bread on top to let it soak up some of that liquid. Be careful that you don't layer too much, since it does rise quite a bit in the oven. I usually stop layering once it hits right at the top of the pan.
  • Cover the pan with foil and bake for 1 hour. While it's baking, this is a good time to get started on those sauces!
  • After that 1st hour, remove the foil and bake uncovered until it's no longer liquid in the center and the top should be golden brown.
  • Raspberry Sauce:.
  • Combine water, sugar, and orange zest in a sauce pan over medium heat. Stir until syrupy.
  • Add raspberries and cook on low heat stirring occasionally until the fruit falls apart. Strain out the seeds.
  • White Chocolate Sauce:.
  • Heat heavy cream in saucepan over medium heat until hot.
  • Stir in white chocolate morsels until melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Prepping the Bread Pudding:.
  • By individual slices, place a slice(s) on a cookie sheet and brush each piece with the melted sweet cream butter, including the sides (don't worry about the bottom of the slice).
  • Bake in oven for about 12-15 minutes. This will create a crisp "seared" outside which is very delicious.
  • Once the bread pudding is ready, by individual slices, place on a serving plate and drizzle with the white chocolate sauce and droplets of raspberry sauce. Enjoy!

3 cups fresh Fredericksburg peaches, peeled and chopped into bite-size pieces
1/2 cup toasted chopped pecans
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Peach Sauce
Chantilly Cream

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

For bread pudding
about 1/2 pound brioche or challah
5 ounces fine-quality white chocolate
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
3 large whole eggs
3 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
For poached cherries
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup dried tart cherries
Accompaniment: whipped cream

Steps:

  • Make pudding:
  • Butter an 8-inch square glass baking dish. Cut enough bread into 3/4-inch cubes to measure 6 cups. Chop chocolate.
  • In a small heavy saucepan bring 1 cup cream just to a boil and add chocolate. Remove pan from heat and let mixture stand, covered, undisturbed. In another small heavy saucepan bring milk and remaining cup cream to a gentle simmer. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat together whole eggs, yolks, sugar, and a pinch salt on medium speed 5 minutes. With mixer running, add milk mixture in a slow stream, beating until combined well. Whisk chocolate mixture until smooth and add with vanilla to egg mixture. Beat mixture until combined well.
  • Arrange bread cubes in baking dish. Pour cream mixture over bread and with a spoon push bread down into mixture to coat evenly. Chill pudding, covered, 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Put baking dish in a large baking pan and add enough hot water to pan to reach halfway up sides of dish. Bake pudding in middle of oven 45 to 50 minutes, or until set and springy to the touch. Transfer pudding to a rack and cool 30 minutes before serving.
  • Poach cherries while pudding is baking:
  • In a saucepan bring wine, water, and sugar to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add cherries and remove pan from heat. Let mixture stand, covered, 1 hour. Drain cherries in a sieve and discard liquid.
  • Serve pudding with cherries and whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use stale bread for a firmer texture and to prevent the bread pudding from becoming too soggy.
  • If you don't have stale bread, you can toast fresh bread cubes in the oven before using them.
  • Use a variety of breads for a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs, as this can make the bread pudding tough.
  • Add a variety of spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, to enhance the flavor of the bread pudding.
  • Use a water bath to prevent the bread pudding from drying out.
  • Allow the bread pudding to cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

White chocolate bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture, rich flavor, and crispy topping, this bread pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give white chocolate bread pudding a try. You won't be disappointed!
