TOASTED PECAN BREAD PUDDING & BOURBON SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Chop pecans, if not already chopped, then toast in preheated 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Then set aside till needed. May toast bread in same oven at same time, but may require additional extra time till fully toasted. Stir after the first 15 minutes, and adjust time as needed.
• 2. These are the main ingredients. I didn't have all raisins, so I used dried cranberries & raisins. The original recipe suggested golden raisins. The Mexican Vanilla is a gift from Phyllis Lively here at Just A Pinch. I love it's strong aromatic sweet flavor.

• 8. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture over the bread pudding & return to the oven for an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until the pudding is set and the topping is browed. Remove from oven.

Prepare the bourbon sauce by adding the butter to a small sauce pan along with the firmly packed browned sugar & corn starch, whisk as butter begins to melt & sugar dissolves over low heat, and mixture slowly comes to boil, then pour in the heavy whipping cream and whisk together till blended abut 2 minutes. Add the bourbon & cook for about 1/2 minute. Remove from heat and add in the Mexican vanilla & whisk until thoroughly blended. Allow sauce to cool slightly before serving.
