Instructions to make Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce:
- NOTE: Some will want to know if they can cut calories and fat by substituting for the butter, cream, whole milk, eggs. Simple answer, NO. This is a bad-for-you, make-you-moan, decadent, delicious dessert meant to be prepared as written. If you want/need something healthy, this just isn't for you.
- Tear the bread into 1-inch pieces and place in a very large bowl.
- Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with the butter and set aside.
- Combine the heavy cream, milk, eggs, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to mix. Stir in the raisins and pecan pieces.
- Pour the cream mixture over the bread, and stir to combine. The spices tend to stick to the bowl, so be sure to scrape all the spices into the bowl of bread too. Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 1 hour so most of the cream mixture is absorbed by the bread.
- Carefully pour the bread mixture into the buttered baking dish and bake in a 350° F oven until the center of the bread pudding is set, about 1 hour. While it's baking, prepare the whiskey sauce.
- In a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, milk, and sugar.
- In a measuring cup, whisk together the whiskey and cornstarch. Pour into the pan with the cream mixture and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the butter & the pinch of salt.
- When the bread pudding is done baking, allow to sit and partially cool, for 10 to 15 minutes. Plate servings, while warm, and top with warm whiskey sauce. It's also excellent with a shot of whipped cream (aerosol can type) on top of the whiskey sauce! Killer good!!

A lot of us believe that comfort foods are not good for us and that we should stay away from them. Sometimes, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this can be true. At times, comfort foods can be perfectly nutritious and good for us to eat. There are a number of foods that, when you consume them, may boost your mood.

Eggs, would you believe, are wonderful for helping you fight depression. You must be sure, though, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, specifically the yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can truly help you improve your mood. This is because these vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Try consuming a couple of eggs to cheer up!
Make a trail mixout of a variety of seeds and nuts. Your mood can be elevated by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. This is because these nuts are loaded with magnesium, which helps to boost serotonin production.

Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a great protein food source.
Cold water fish are great if you are wanting to feel better. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all full of omega-3 fats and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.
It’s not hard to drive away your bad mood when you are eating grains. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all great for helping you feel happier. These foods fill you up better and that can help improve your moods too. It’s easy to feel low when you feel hungry! These grains can elevate your mood since it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them.

Green tea is actually good for your mood. You were just anticipating to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine.
