Ingredients
- 1 * 1 loaf stale french bread, shredded (6-8 cups)
- 4 * 4 cups buttermilk
- 2 * 2 cups sugar
- 1 * 1 stick (8 TBS) butter
- 4 * 4 eggs
- 2 * 2 TSP vanilla
- 1 * 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 * 1 can crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 * 1 cup whole pecans
- 1 * 1 cup white chocolate chips
Preparation
Step 1
Combine all the ingredients in a greased 9X12 casserole dish. Mixture should be very moist, but not soupy.
Bake at 350 degree oven for @1 hour 15 minutes until top is golden brown. Serve warm with whiskey sauce.
WHISKEY SAUCE
(can be made "virgin" by leaving out the whiskey)
Ingredients:
* 8 TBS butter (one stick
* 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
* 2 egg yolks
* 1/2 cup bourbon
Cream butter and sugar over medium heat til all the butter is absorbed. Remove from heat and blend in egg yolk. Add bourbon to your taste, stirring constantly. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
Pour this over the bread pudding and serve everything warm.
If you should be lucky enough to have any leftovers, pop a slice into the microwave for about 30 seconds and it is even better the next day!
