Cookie Butter Bread Pudding, bread soaked in an eggy cookie butter mixture and then baked with white chocolate chips, making for an indulgent and amazing dessert.
Cookie butter and bread pudding are two of my weaknesses. I love both more than is actually reasonable. So of course combining them made total sense. Watch out for this dessert, it’s not easy to have just a little.

What is Cookie Butter
Cookie Butter is a spread that is made from speculaas cookies. It is similar in consistency to peanut butter but much sweeter. It is absolutely delicious and I love eating it with a spoon.
In the words of my wonderful friend, Joan:
“It is a jar full of unicorn tears and ground up deliciousness that tastes like it was made in Narnia”

Best Bread for Bread Pudding
My favorite bread to use for bread pudding is brioche. That being said, challah and French bread. You will want to make sure that you use dried out bread. It will make it easier for it to absorb the custard and get the end result you are looking for.
Serving
I like serving this with a little whipped cream on top. But honestly that isn’t totally necessary and it is fantastic on its own. Bread pudding can be served both warm and cold, it is just a matter of personal preference.
Storing
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to five days. Store in the refrigerator. As with all leftovers, use your best discretion.

Connor says
Note that 5 cups of bread is not a volume measurement. The mixture wasn’t even enough for 2 cups of bread by volume.
So I actually the issue is that buns aren’t uniform in size. If you get the large slider buns and cut them up, it does equal five cups … by volume.
