This white chocolate bread pudding is an easy and delicious bread pudding recipe made with Starbucks® White Chocolate Mocha coffee creamer which provides a rich addition to the custardy filling.
Bread pudding is one of my favorite desserts to make. It’s so decadent and delicious and so incredibly easy to make. That’s the perfect combination for any dessert if you ask me! Over the years, I’ve made all kinds of bread puddings from chocolate chip to lemon and everything in between. Lately, I’ve been using a recently discovered secret to easily make all kinds of bread pudding variations – coffee creamer! That’s right, by using coffee creamer, I can keep the recipe simple and make all kinds of interesting flavors. The bread pudding I’m sharing today is a perfect example of that.
White Chocolate Bread Pudding
Like any good bread pudding, this recipe starts with soft but hearty challah bread that I cut into 1-inch cubes. Then, I make a white chocolate custard by using traditional ingredients and my secret ingredient – Starbucks White Chocolate Mocha coffee creamer. After that, I simply let the bread absorb the cream mixture, bake until golden brown, and drizzle it all with melted white and dark chocolate. When it’s all done, I have a rich, decadent bread pudding that looks and tastes so fancy but only takes a little over an hour to make. And that’s with baking time!
