Jack Daniels Bread Pudding

"This recipe was shared with me by a DF when she brought it to one of our Lady Elks Pot Luck Dinners when I lived in Nevada City, CA. All though there is another recipe for a bread pudding with Jack Daniel's sauce it is NOT the same, and this is the recipe my family requests on many of our get togethers. This makes 2 large pans of pudding, and can be halved, or freeze one for later."

directions

  • Pudding:

  • Lightly grease deep dish casserole pans.
  • Fill with toasted bread cubes and raisins mixed together.
  • Heat milk and butter in pan over medium heat.
  • Whisk sugar, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Add 1 cup of the heated milk mixture to this, then mix this into the hot milk mixture. Pour over the bread and raisins. Put your casserole dish (I use two 9x13 inch casseroles and bake one at a time) with the pudding into a deeper pan that has at least an inch of water in it, and cover with foil.
  • Bake at 350°F for one hour. Remove foil and place back in oven for an additional 15 minutes, or until nicely browned. Pour cream sauce over the pudding and keep warm in oven until time to serve.
  • Cream Sauce (I make this while the pudding is cooking):

  • Combine all ingredients into a large saucepan and heat to boiling. Turn heat down to low and allow to reduce to consistency of your liking.
  • I double the sauce recipe so I can have some to pour over the pudding and ice cream when I serve it.
  • Serve hot with either ice cream and extra sauce or with heavy cream drizzled over it.

  1. I can't believe I have stumbled across this. I used to make this all the time but lost the recipe years ago and quite frankly forgot all about it, until today that is!! I am feeling very Fall-ish today and will be making this tonight for sure!! This is by far the best bread pudding recipe I have ever had!! If making for a Holiday or something special, go ahead and make the full fat version, but if just making this for yourself and want to watch calories, it tastes perfectly fine when using low fat ingredients. Less rich, but that is ok because this is so very rich to begin with.
     
  2. Since there are only two of us, I made half of this recipe. Probably should've made the whole thing, the way it's disappeaing!lol I don't use whole milk, so I used fat free half and half, and was it ever rich!! It's sinfully delicious and is, as another rater said, worth 10 stars. The sauce is so wonderful! I know I'll be making this many more times and each time, I'll be thinking of you, my friend. Wonderful recipe ChaCha, thanks for posting! Made for Chef's Pick at one of the forums at KK.
     
  3. really this recipe deserves more than 5 stars, the sauce alone deserves a 10 star rating all itself and I plan on using the sauce for many more recipes I could have just eaten it all on a spoon! please try this recipe you will not be dissaponted, thank you Char for this great bread pudding recipe I will make many time over, made for KK's CP game
     
  4. OMG! This is such an indulgence! We really enjoyed the combination of flavors & textures in this pudding. And the sauce? TDF good! I used the Zaar calculator to cut the recipe down to 12 servings & used an 8x10 casserole dish (I think this amount would fit nicely in an 8x8 next time though ), but otherwise made as directed. I had everything on hand for this & it was surprisingly easy. I especially liked that it didn't have to refrigerate for any length of time. We'll be making this again & again! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe, Chabear! :)
     
  5. This is a delicious recipe!! I did take out some of the sugar. And i used one large casserole pan and had to bake it a bit longer but was quite delicious!!!
