the magic of follow through and bread pudding

i pinned a recipe.  and made it.  AMAZING.  [turns out capital z doesnt show up in this font?]  FRIKKIN AWESOME

bacon ranch cheese bread

definitely less uniform square than in the recipe.  but thats cos im a lazy baker.  

BACON CHUNK!!

go make it.  now.  and then die of clogged arteries.  fat and happy.  so happy.
in other news, roommate and i went to the grocery store a few days ago.  not paying attention we each bought a huge child-sized loaf of challah.  delicious..but not eaten quickly enough.  so it dried out.  praise someone we finally have heat so baking bread pudding was more for the tasty instead of my emergency warm-up-the-55-degree-house baking that i did last weekend.  [andes mint chip cookies, toffee chip cookies, and whoopie pies in case you were wondering]

recipe from joy of cooking

12 oz sad dried out challah, diced

4 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 teas vanilla
cinnamon/nutmeg/ginger/salt as needed
whisk that shit together

then seek out soy milk

1 1/2 cup soy milk
1 1/2 cup choco soy [cos i ran out of plain]

toss some chocolate chips in for good measure

douse with milky liquid and soak until gooey. 

bake in water bath [kind of a pain in the ass] for an hour at 350.
