Butterscotch Bourbon Pudding

If you’re in the mood for a delicious, creamy dessert, then you need to try butterscotch bourbon pudding. This rich pudding is made with brown sugar, butter, heavy cream, and of course, bourbon.

How to Make Butterscotch Budino

Melt the butter in a saucepan, caramelize the brown sugar, and add in the cream and milk. Temper the egg yolks by slowly mixing in the warm milk mixture.  Then add in the rest of the pudding ingredients and bring the mixture to a boil until thickened. Then remove from heat. Next, whisk in the vanilla and bourbon and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.  Divide the pudding into six 8-quart cups, press plastic wrap on the top, and chill for at least 2 hours. Serve chilled with whipped cream and toffee bits, if desired.

Ingredient Notes

Brown Sugar: Although it may be harder to tell when the caramel is done, dark brown sugar will give you  the richest, most decadent flavor. Use an instant-read thermometer if using dark brown sugar. Toffee Bits: If you have butterscotch chips, you can use those instead of toffee bits.  Heavy Cream: To make 1 cup of heavy cream, mix 2/3 cup of whole milk with 1/3 cup melted butter.
