Combine Ingredients
Fold the bread cubes and white chocolate chips into the custard mixture until the bread is well coated. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to soak up the liquid.

Prepare Dried Cherry-Bourbon Sauce
While the bread pudding is baking, combine leftover bourbon with additional dried cherries in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
