Chocolate peppermint bread pudding recipe by @waitingonmartha
Chocolate Peppermint Bread Pudding | Recipe by @waitingonmartha

Chocolate and peppermint is one of my all-time favorite flavor combos.  This should come to no surprise to you if you’ve tried our Chocolate Peppermint Martini, our Chocolate Peppermint Kiss Cupcakes, our Chocolate Candy Cane Popcorn and how could I forget about our Chocolate Peppermint Buttercream Cookie Cake?!  There’s just something about the cool, minty freshness of peppermint paired with smooth, rich chocolate.  

And simply, I’ve also been craving a good bread pudding recently.  When I say good bread pudding, too, clearly I’m talking about decadent, over-the-top bread pudding like this boozy Chocolate Peppermint Bread Pudding here today.  I, in true form, opted for what I consider the best-of-the-best ingredients (it makes such a difference!) and used fluffy, sweet Brioche bread and my new favorite Peppermint Mocha southern cream liqueur.  And because I had my favorite Peppermint Vitality Essential Oil from  The Well Code, on hand (I use it every day for my head and tummy) I was able to infuse the dessert with that extra boost of peppermint without having to buy the store bought sugary crap.

The beauty of bread pudding is all in the baking; it’s actually a simple dish to make, and it’s one that still delivers a gourmet effect when served to a table of hungry brunchers and indulgent desserters alike. The bite-size cubes of sweet bread lightly toast to perfection, giving the dish a crispy crust on the top and around the edges.  That toastiness of that top layer offers the perfect balance to the softness of the soaked gooey bread beneath, sopping up the smooth, creamy peppermint liqueur.  

If boozy bread pudding isn’t on your holiday menu this year, I highly suggest that changes STAT.  And once you try it at home, I’d love to hear how it turned out!  Enjoy!  Truly, MKR

Homemade boozy butterbeer recipe via Waiting on MarthaHomemade butterbeer recipe via Waiting on Martha

As you’ve joined us in test-tasting, we’ve been celebrating fall flavors in cocktail form with Pottery Barn; our Rummy Spiced Cider and Ginny Gin Gin Punch have proven to be quite the crowd-pleasers.  But perhaps the best of all?  Our Boozy Butterbeer, inspired by the magical world of Harry Potter. 

I’d be lying if I said the WOM team hasn’t check the mail a few times for their own Hogwarts acceptance letters, like any true Harry Potter fan.  I mean can you find a HP fan who hasn’t dreamt of clanking a few glasses of Butterbeer in Hogsmeade with their best buds?  Nope.  So every time the haunting season rolls around, we let our imaginations drift to a more magical place with this boozy rendition of Harry Potter’s Butterbeer. 

Apparently it was quite the process nailing the final recipe that’s used at Universal, which is delicious, but alas—nonalcoholic.  So in true WOM fashion, we slipped some Captain Morgan into our cauldron, giving each spooky cat glass that buzz it deserves. Think about sipping on creamy, foamy, syrupy, malty, velvety notes by the roaring fire in the common room (in those great Gryffindor scarves!).  Sooo good!  Truly, MKR

Christmas Morning Boozy Gingerbread Pancakes

Ah, Christmas morning.  I don’t know about you, but this gloriously lazy morning is one I wait for all year ’round; gifts litter the living room floor, bows and wrapping paper are strewn all over the place, holiday coffee is brewing in the kitchen and my absolute favorite part: boozy gingerbread pancakes are ready to devour.

We’ve been eating Christmas morning pancakes for as long as I can remember.  All of my Christmas memories when I was young involved a stack of warm, fluffy pancakes before settling into the usual Christmas Day coma.  It’s a cherished tradition that I’ve taken on at our house when Mom and Dad come to us now.  

Since I don’t want to over-exert myself in the kitchen on Christmas morning (let’s be real, I just want to get cozy!), I stick to my tried and true Christmas morning pancake recipe, but each year I amp them up a bit with a different flavor combo.  This year, gingerbread pancakes with chopped pecans my new favorite festive booze: Jackson Morgan’s Brown Sugar & Cinnamon cream liqueur.  I promise you this combo is a match made in heaven, but you can always have a little fun with your own renditions; these pancakes would be great with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg, too! Oh, and did I mention the Jackson Morgan Cream taste fantastic in your coffee as well!

How will you usher in this joyous day?  I’d love to know if gingerbread pancakes are on your Christmas Day menu! Truly, MKR
