Need an idea for a perfect dessert? I have a perfectly delicious way to round out your meal. This bread pudding recipe is perfect for those who want an out-of-the-box dessert.

INGREDIENTS:

4 cups heavy cream

2 1/2 cups whole milk

1 1/2 cups sugar

4 egg yolks plus 1 whole egg

10 ounces chopped white chocolate or white chocolate morsels

1 1/1 cups toasted and coarsely chopped macadamia nuts

Vanilla Bean Crème Anglaise, for serving


DIRECTIONS:

1.Combine the cream, milk, and the sugar in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and bring just to a boil. Add the white chocolate chips and remove from the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes, undisturbed, then whisk until the chocolate is completely dissolved.
