This is an update to a recipe that's been in our family for three generations. The combination of white chocolate and amaretto mingled with seasonal cranberry is my favorite way to end any celebration's meal. —Jennifer Evans DaCastello, Virginia Beach, Virginia

Ingredients

3 large eggs, room temperature
4 cups 2% milk
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
3 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup toasted chopped pecans, optional
6 cups cubed day-old French bread
SAUCE:
1 cup white baking chips
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1/4 cup amaretto

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk together eggs, milk, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla and spices. Stir in cranberries and, if desired, pecans. Gently stir in bread; let stand until bread is softened, about 15 minutes.

Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake until pudding is puffed and golden, and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 50-55 minutes.
In a small heavy saucepan, heat baking chips and butter over low heat until melted and smooth, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in amaretto. Serve with warm bread pudding.
