White Chocolate Bread Pudding

I love white chocolate bread pudding, it's the ultimate comfort dessert -- the kind of dessert you'll want to eat while snuggling up to a fireplace. Everyone will come back for seconds...and thirds.

(Preheat the oven to 275)
1. Tear up your loaf of french bread into bite size pieces. Distribute the pieces evenly in a baking pan.
2. Heat the whipping cream in a double boiler and add 10 oz. of white chocolate chips. Stir. When the chocolate is melted, remove from heat. Pour pour into a large bowl and set aside.
3. In a double boiler, heat the milk, sugar, eggs and egg yolks until warm. Stir well. Blend the egg mixture into the cream and chocolate mixture in the large bowl.
