MMMMM--------------------------PUDDING----------------
1 Loaf stale French bread
2 c Milk
1 c Heavy cream
1/2 c Irish cream liqueur
2 tb Unsalted butter; softened
3 Eggs
1 1/4 c Sugar
1 tb Vanilla
1/2 c Raisins
MMMMM-----------------CARAMEL IRISH CREAM SAUCE-------
1/4 c Water
1 c Sugar
1/3 c Freshly brewed coffee
1/3 c Heavy cream
1 ts Lemon juice
1/4 c Irish cream liqueur
Pudding:
Crumble the bread, with the crust, into a bowl.
Cover with combined milk, cream and liqueur and
let stand an hour or until the bread has absorbed
most of the liquid.
Preheat oven to 325°. Butter a 13X9" baking dish
and set aside.
Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla until well blended.
Mix gently with bread and raisins. Spoon into pan,
smooth top. Bake until light brown and the
custard is set, about an hour.
Caramel Irish Cream Sauce:
Pour sugar into water in saucepan and let stand
until sugar is wet. Cook, swirling occasionally,
until the mixture turns nut brown. Remove from
heat. Immediately and CAREFULLY, to avoid
splatters, pour in coffee and cream into the
saucepan. Return to heat and cook, stirring
constantly, until caramel melts. Remove from heat
and cool. Stir in lemon juice and liqueur just
before serving.
