How To make Chocolate Pecan Pralines Prudhomme
1 1/2 Sticks unsalted butter
1 c Sugar
1 c Packed, light brown sugar
1 c Milk
1/2 c Heavy cream
1 c Coarsely chopped pecans
2 c Whole pecan halves
2 T Vanilla extract
1 1/2 c Semisweet chocolate chips
NOTE: Chocolate chips should be chilled. Assemble all the ingredients and utensils before starting to cook. (Measure out the chocolate chips and keep them refregerated until just before needed.) You will need a large, heavy-bottomed aluminum pot or skillet with deep sides, a long-handled metal whisk or spoon, 2 large spoons (or an ice cream scoop with a manual release) and a very lightly greased cookie sheet. Melt the butter in the pot over high heat; add the sugars, milk, cream and chopped pecans. cook 5 minutes, whisking constantly. reduce heat to
medium, and continue cooking and whisking 10 minutes. Add the pecan halves and continue whisking and cooking until done, about 8 to 10 minutes. (If the mixture smokes excessively toward end of cooking time, lower thge heat.) Stir in vanilla. then immediately drop about 1/4 cup of chocolate chips into about one-sixth of the batter. Stir quickly and just enough to cover some of the chips with batter but not nenough to allow the chips to melt. Quickly drop the chocolate mixture onto the cookie sheet by heaping spoonfuls, using the second spoon to push the batter off the first (or use ice cream scoop); each praline should be about 2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. repeat with remaining mixture, stirring briefly before adding more chocolate chips. The cooled pralines should be light brown, opaque, somewhat chunky and crumbly. LAGNIAPPE: To clean the pot and utensils, boil water in the pot with the utensils in it. This will melt the batter off.

The Magic of Chef Paul - Apple &Cheese Bread Stuffing
Chef Paul explains how to make a delicious apple and cheese bread stuffing!
Authentic New Orleans Bread Pudding
This is an authentic New Orleans Bread Pudding, originally from the Bon Ton Cafe in New Orleans. The original calls for a whole cup of bourbon which I think is a little excessive. We've reduced the amount to 1/2 cup which is still strong. You could reduce it further to 1/4 cup if you wanted. The ingredients are: Bread Pudding:
1 loaf French bread, at least a day old, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 6-7 cups)
1 qt milk
3 eggs (large)
2 cups sugar
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 cup raisins (soaked an hour or two in 1/4 cup bourbon)
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Bourbon Sauce:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup Kentucky bourbon whiskey (less or more to taste)
If you want a non-alcoholic version, use 1/2 cup of water mixed with 1 Tbsp vanilla extract and 2 Tbsp of cider or white vinegar in place of the bourbon called for in the sauce recipe.
