Directions
For the bread pudding: In a small bowl, combine the raisins with the bourbon. Let stand for at least 30 minutes or longer, preferably overnight. In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes and the milk. Let stand while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees with a rack in the center. In a bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vanilla, nutmeg and the raisins with their soaking liquid. Add the egg/raisin mixture to the bread mixture and fold together. Put mixture into a pyrex baking dish and bake for approximately 30 minutes.
For the whiskey sauce: In a small saucepan melt the butter and sugar and stir until it starts to carmelize, then whisk in the egg and bourbon. Cook for one minute, take off the heat and transfer to a cool container. Serve sauce warm, along with whipped cream on the pudding.
