Prepare the Bread
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed stale bread with the heavy cream and milk. Let it soak for about 15 minutes, allowing the bread to absorb the liquids.

Melt the White Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
