DRUNKEN BRANDY-PEACH BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• TO MAKE THE BREAD PUDDING: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray. Mix the granulated sugar, half-and-half, and cinnamon in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves. (No need to boil the mixture.) Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Whisk the 3 eggs in a bowl until the whites and yolks are combined. Pour about 1/4 cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking as you pour. (This tempers the eggs, which keeps them from curdling when they are mixed into the hot cream mixture.) Pour the tempered egg mixture into the cream mixture left in the saucepan and whisk until the sauce is smooth.
• Gently combine the bread cubes and peaches in a large bowl. Spoon into the prepared pan. Pour the sauce over the peach-bread mixture and let sit for about 30 minutes to let the sauce soak into the bread. Sprinkle the pecans on top.
• Bake until the pudding is firm and lightly browned on top, about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature with warm Peach Brandy Sauce.
• TO MAKE THE PEACH BRANDY SAUCE: Melt the butter and brown sugar together in a saucepan set over medium heat. Remove the mixture from the heat. In a bowl, whisk the 1 egg with a fork. Temper the egg by adding about 2 tablespoons of the butter-sugar mixture to the egg and whisk constantly until the egg is incorporated. Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining sugar-butter mixture and whisk until the sauce is smooth. Add the salt and whisk in the brandy. Keep the sauce warm until ready to serve. Pour it over the bread putting as soon as it comes out of the oven.
• do it early
• The bread pudding can be made up to 12 hours in advance, covered, and refrigerated. Warm in a 300°F oven. The sauce can be made up to 48 hours in advance and refrigerated until ready to use. Reheat it in a heavy saucepan set over low heat until it is warm but not hot; or microwave it on medium power in a microwave-safe container until warm, about 1 to 2 minutes.

LADY ROSE'S BRANDY PEACH COBBLER WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. I would prefer using fresh or frozen peaches but during the off season I used canned variety. I used the gallon size to make both the pie and the cobbler. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. These are the canned peaches that I used. I did not use the lemon juice in this recipe because of the Brandy.
• 2. Separate peaches from liquid, cut into thirds and reserve liquid.
• 3. Add enough water to peach liquid to make about 6 cups.
• 4. Combine the dry ingredients together, sugar, salt, nutmeg, flour, & cinnamon
• 5. Break one of the refrigerated dough shells into small pieces to be used as dumplings. Set aside till needed to add to peach liquid.
• 6. Add the dry blend ingredients to the liquid, and stir just until it begins to thicken. Simmer over medium high heat.
• 7. Stir in the dumplings and cook over medium high heat just long enough to prevent them from sticking together about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the peaches. Then remove from heat. Add the butter and stir till it melts.
• 8. Then add the vanilla bean paste or extract, butter extract, and Peach brandy in a small cup, stir into liquid mixture.
• 9. Add about a HALF of peach mixture to bottom of a 9 X 13 size baking pan, & top with a pie crust. Place in 375 degrees F. oven and bake for about 15 minutes. THEN REMOVE FROM OVEN. IF YOU WANT TO ADD 4 CRUSTS TO COBBLER, ADD ONE TO BOTTOM OF PAN BEFORE ADDING THE PEACH MIXTURE.
• 10. REMOVE FROM OVEN, and add remaining peach mixture. TOP WITH ADDITIONAL CRUST. Brush top of cobbler with egg wash and then add sparkling sugar crystals. Place cobbler on a larger shallow pan lined with foil to catch any potential drips before adding the last of the cobbler liquid for the oven.
• 11. Return to oven and continue to bake for about 45 to 50 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and serve as desired. PLEASE NOTE IF THERE IS TOO MUCH LIQUID OVER THE TOP OF THE CRUST BEFORE BAKING THAT PART WILL NOT GET AS GOLDEN BROWN ON TOP AS THE PART THAT IS NOT COVERED IN LIQUID. So you may want to remove some of the excess liquid BEFORE baking.
