Bread Pudding with Lemon Sauce

Bread pud­ding is not my gig. Sorry…but I really think it’s because I get caught up in the whole pudding-but-it’s-not-really-pudding thing. All that being said, there is ONE recipe that makes me swoon.  And in all hon­esty, it’s more the sauce with the pud­ding than the pud­ding recipe itself.

Bread Pud­ding

6 cups bread cubes
1 qt. of milk
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
2 T. but­ter
3/4 — 1 cups sugar
Can add raisins, dates, nuts, cin­na­mon
Pinch of nutmeg

Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour in a casse­role dish.

Lemon Sauce

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup but­ter
1/4 cup water
1 egg, well beaten
3/4 t. grated lemon peel
3 T. lemon juice

Com­bine all ingre­di­ents in medium saucepan. Heat to boil­ing over medium heat, stir­ring con­stantly. Serve warm. (Makes 1 1/3 cups)

   OOOOOOHHHH MYYYYY GOSH!!!
   I’m so happy.

   Two of my rules in life:
   If bread pud­ding is on the menu, I order it.
   If lemon tart is on the menu, i order it.

   They never co-exist on menus, lucky for me.

   But this…THIS!!! Sheer Genius. I am ecsta­tic and canna wait to go to the gro­cery store.
