Miss Madeliene loves our White Chocolate Craisin Bread Pudding Recipe!

White Chocolate Craisin Bread Pudding is yummm-y!!  Gosh, I love it!  I have a secret to tell… I don’t like chocolate.  However, I LOVE white chocolate (chocolate with lots of caramel is fabulous too..)  This dish has cranberries and white chocolate!  Together, they just make my taste buds boom!  It is the perfect combo.

    I improvised due to what I had on hand and tastes delicious! Finished off some texas toast and Hawaiian buns, used Kahlua, and butterscotch baking chips. I can’t wait to try again with spiced rum and white chocolate chips! Thank you for a fantastic recipe

    • Chef Ruthie says:

      Hi Mary, I love your utilization of bread you already had in the kitchen. I’m so happy hear that you loved it…I love all of the flavor combinations! Thank you for the fun comment and for sharing your creative ideas. xoxo~ Ruthie

    Hi, I have left over cranberries from Thanksgiving in my freezer. They are whole and uncooked. Could I use those instead of craisins? It will add moisture and a little extra tartness but I don’t think that would be a bad thing. What do you think?

    • Ruthie says:

      Hi… I’m a big fan of using what I have on hand too. I think it’d work, although I would defrost them, drain them, and rough chop them so they are smaller pieces. I’d also probably also toss them in a sweetener before hand. I’d love to know how this turns out for you!! xoxo~ Ruthie
