Ingredients
Bread Pudding:
1 two foot baguette
1.5 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
6 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted salted butter, cooled to room temperature
1.5 teaspoons vanilla
1.75 cups heavy cream
1 pint Guinness beer
1 cup chopped walnuts
Caramel Sauce:
1/2 cup Butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
1 teaspoon Sea Salt Flakes
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325*F.
Tear bread into bite-sized chunks, place on a baking sheet, and cook for 15 minutes to dry them out (unless you planned ahead and already dried the bread out prior!)
Whisk together sugar, cocoa, eggs, vanilla, butter, heavy cream and Guinness.
Add bread and walnuts and gently stir, making sure bread becomes fully soaked with egg mixture.
Press mixture into a 9 x 13 pan and bake for 40 minutes or until firm and slightly crispy on top.
While the Guinness Bread Pudding is cooking, make the caramel sauce.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar and whisk until smooth. Stir in heavy cream and sea salt flakes until smooth.
Pour glaze over Guinness bread pudding.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
