Nigella Lawson Caramel Croissant Pudding

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Tear croissants into pieces and put in a small gratin dish.
• Put sugar and water into a saucepan, and swirl around to help dissolve the sugar before putting the saucepan on the burner over medium to high heat.
• Caramelize the sugar and water mixture by letting it bubble away until it all turns a deep amber color. This will take 3-5 minutes.
• Turn heat down to low and add heavy cream. Whisk in whole milk and bourbon. Take off the heat and, still whisking, add eggs.
• Pour the caramel bourbon custard over the croissants and leave to steep for 10 minutes if the croissants are very stale.
• Place in oven for 20 minutes….
• Serves 2 greedy people!
