My #SilkHoliday Recipe @LovemySilk

With the holidays coming up fast, I love to start getting my recipes ready. During the week, I'm usually too busy to make really special stuff for dinner or even dessert so when the holidays start coming up, my family knows to start putting extra notches in their belts!
Now even though I like to cook extravagently during the holidays, that doesn't mean that I start using unhealthy products. Just like everyday during the week, I still use healthy products in my recipes. And since our family drinks soy milk, I decided to use Silk soy milk in my recipes this year.
I experimented with one of my husband's favorites - Bread Pudding. He's loved it since we first got married so this time I made Chocolate Cherry Bread Pudding!

Ingredients:

3 1/2cup(s) Silk vanilla soy milk

4 ounce(s) semisweet chocolate

2 ounce(s) unsweetened chocolate

cup(s) sugar

2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract

teaspoon(s) salt

3 large eggs

8 ounce(s) (about 10 slices) stale firm white bread, cut into 1/4-inch dice

cup(s) dried tart cherries

Directions:

Grease 8" by 8" glass baking dish. In 1-quart saucepan, heat milk to simmering over medium-high heat.

Meanwhile, in 3-quart saucepan, melt chocolates over low heat. Remove from heat; with fork or wire whisk, stir in sugar, vanilla, and salt, then eggs, until combined. Slowly whisk simmering milk into melted chocolate mixture until blended. Gently stir in bread. Let stand 20 minutes to allow bread to absorb milk mixture, stirring once.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Pour bread mixture into baking dish; sprinkle with cherries. Cover with foil and bake pudding 40 minutes. Uncover and bake 15 minutes longer or until knife inserted in center of pudding comes out almost clean. Cool on wire rack 20 minutes to serve warm, or cover and refrigerate to serve cold later.

If you want to be a little naughty, you can even add vanilla ice cream on top!
