Sopa Baracha (Bourbon Bread Pudding) | Chef Eric Recipe
Every cook needs 3 great desserts! This Bourbon Bread Pudding has been a favorite of my families for years and sure does make baking simple. My suggestion, get this on the grill before leaning into those new year’s resolutions. Bread, butter, chocolate and bourbon are a gift, happy grilling team!
