CHOCOLATE CROISSANT BREAD PUDDING
Okay, if you don't make a single other dessert from this book, make this bread pudding. It is DECADENT and FABULOUS. I made it one day and put it on my Instagram story and I don't think I've ever gotten so many DMs asking for a recipe (but I waited until now to share it!). This is my nod to Meryl Streep making chocolate croissants for Steve Martin in It's Complicated, the inspiration for this entire book.

CHOCOLATE CROISSANT BREAD PUDDING
Using croissants as the bread in bread pudding is even better than you might imagine: The chocolate custard seeps right in between the layers of flaky pastry. And croissants are almost all crust, always the best part of the bread pudding. The dessert is chocolatey, buttery, creamy and flaky all at once. I started doing this when I worked at a country house hotel in England, Stapleford Park Hotel, where we always had leftover baked croissants from breakfast. Cooking with stale bread or croissants is a handy and sensible quick-trick; I love to use it up instead of throw it away. Bread or croissants that are a couple of days old is more firm and absorbent than fresh, so it's always the choice for bread puddings that are moist without falling apart completely. The croissant-cream mixture can be refrigerated, covered, up to one day in advance. If so, add five to 10 minutes to the baking time.

Steps:
- Cut the croissants into 1-inch cubes. You should have about 3 1/2 cups. Place the cubes in an ovenproof baking dish.
- In a saucepan, heat the half-and-half, cream, and salt over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn't burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat. Add the chocolate and whisk until melted.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together. Whisking constantly, gradually add the hot chocolate-cream mixture. Strain the mixture over the croissant pieces and toss lightly. Let sit while the mixture is absorbed, at least 15 minutes. As it soaks, fold the mixture a few times to ensure even soaking.
- When ready to bake, heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a roasting pan that's 2 inches deep and larger than the baking dish with paper towels. Fill the pan with very hot water and place the dish of bread pudding inside. Bake until set, about 40 to 45 minutes. Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on each serving.
CHOCOLATE CROISSANT PUDDING
This makes a soft custardy bread/croissant pudding & the croissant pieces poking out of the custard get wonderfully crunchy - an extra bonus! Wild Turkey Liqueur is an American classic - a wonderful treasure that certainly deserves a place next to the esteemed Drambuie on one's liqueur shelf.

Steps:
- Wild Turkey sauce:.
- In a small saucepan, Combine the milk, vanilla bean and seeds in a saucepan. Bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat; infuse for 5 minutes, then strain.
- In an electric mixer or with a whisk, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until pale and thickened. Pour about one-fourth of the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture and mix until well combined, then return the yolk mixture to the pan with the rest of the milk and stir constantly over medium low heat until thickened. Do not allow to boil.
- Strain into a clean pan and add the liqueur. Chill.
- Pudding:.
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the croissant halves on a baking sheet and toast until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool. Break into half-inch pieces and set aside.
- Heat the cream with the vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium low heat until it just simmers. Remove from the heat; infuse for 5 minutes. Remove vanilla bean.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until pale and thickened. Gradually whisk the warm cream into the egg yolks, then return to a clean saucepan. Over medium low heat, bring the mixture to just below a boil, stirring constantly until thickened, about 8 minutes. Immediately remove from heat.
- Combine the croissant pieces and chopped chocolate in a bowl. Divide mixture evenly among 6 (8-ounce) ramekins. Spoon the warm custard over the mixture, pressing down with a fork to be sure all the pieces of croissant are soaked.
- Place the ramekins in a roasting pan and pour in enough very hot water to come halfway up their sides. Bake at 350 degrees, until just set, 25 to 30 minutes. At this stage, the puddings can be cooled and refrigerated for several hours or overnight.

CHOCOLATE CROISSANT BREAD PUDDING
I love bread pudding and I love chocolate croissants. Why not combine them? My daughters love chocolate, so this was a winner in my house. It's like a combination of a soft-brownie-cakey-chocolate-chip-cookie with a bit of a creamy texture inside. It tastes good warm, as all melted chocolate desserts do, but even better cooled. My daughters couldn't wait to eat, so good luck holding out for it to cool.

Steps:
- Make the bread pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter a shallow 2-quart baking dish. Toss the croissants with the melted butter on a baking sheet. Arrange in a single layer and bake until toasted, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla and salt in a large bowl. Arrange about half of the croissants in the prepared baking dish. Top with about two-thirds of the milk chocolate, then add the remaining croissants. Pour the egg mixture over the croissants, pressing gently so the croissants are submerged.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover, top with the remaining milk chocolate and bake until the bread pudding is puffed, golden brown and set, 15 to 20 more minutes. Let sit 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce: Bring the heavy cream, butter, sugar, corn syrup and vanilla to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the bittersweet chocolate and whisk until smooth. Serve the bread pudding with the chocolate sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Place the croissant pieces on a baking sheet and toast until just golden. Remove and set aside. Reduce oven to 250 degrees.
- Combine the cream and vanilla bean in a pot. Heat to just below the boiling point (about 185 degrees) -- the cream should be foaming but not boiling. Remove immediately from heat.
- In a bowl, stir the egg yolks and the sugar with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the bowl, until the mixture is lemon colored.
- Stir the milk mixture into the egg mixture. Put the combined liquid into a clean pot and bring to about 185 degrees, stirring and scraping the bottom to reheat (do not boil). Strain through cheesecloth.
- Arrange the lightly toasted croissant pieces in 6 ovenproof soup bowls. Cut the chocolate squares in half and distribute the pieces over the croissants. Spoon the hot custard mixture over them. Cover the bowls tightly with plastic wrap. Place them in a roasting pan holding enough water to cover the bottom. Bake for 15 minutes. Before removing plastic wrap, pierce it with a toothpick to let out the steam.
