Instructions

2.In a medium saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until well combined. Whisk in the whole milk and cream.
3.Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, whisking constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat.
4.Add the chopped chocolates, salt, vanilla, nutmeg, and Kahlua to the saucepan. Whisk until the chocolates are melted and the mixture is smooth.
5.Stir in the bread cubes, making sure they are well coated with the chocolate mixture.
6.Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.

8.While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the Kahlua caramel sauce. In a small saucepan, stir together the sugar, water, and cream of tartar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a deep amber color.
9.Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully stir in the cream and Kahlua until well combined. Be very careful as the mixture will sputter and bubble up.
