Earlier in the day I found these giant blackberries and just had to bring some home. They are the inspiration for my Summer Bread Pudding Cups with Blackberries and White Chocolate Limoncello Sauce.
These bread pudding cups are a simple and comforting dessert , yet decadent at the same time.
The combination of juicy blackberries in a rich bread custard, drizzled with a white chocolate sauce laced with limoncello, definitely fits the bill.
I can’t wait for you to taste it! Yum!

Meanwhile preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place paper cups into a cupcake tin. Once bread has soaked fold in blackberries. Fill cups about 2/3 full with bread mixture making sure to get some blackberries in each cup.

July 6, 2017 at 1:19 pmWhat a beautiful dessert! I love bread puddings because they are so versatile. They can be great desserts (like yours) or you can use them as a base for a delicious entree, such as a Strata. Even the vulgar side dish called stuffing is a type of bread pudding!

July 6, 2017 at 9:24 pmWhen I say vulgar, I only mean in the sense that stuffing is considered common these days. I love stuffing!

July 6, 2017 at 9:38 pmI have not heard of them before. But looked it up and it looks like it would be good in salads or stir fry. They are really pretty too. Might be a cool addition to veggie tray or antipasto.
