I had some Marzipan Stollen (from Christmas) in the freezer that needed to be used. I dried the slices for 2 days and diced the bread up small. I soaked the bread in the custard for about 30 minutes. I thought it needed just a little sauce so I whipped together a coconut sauce: 1 cup coconut milk (light works just fine), 1 T. white sugar, or more to taste, 1 T. cornstarch, 1/8 - 1/4 tsp. coconut extract and 1/2 - 1 T. shredded unsweetened coconut. Put 3/4 cup of coconut milk and sugar into a medium pot and heat until just simmering. Mix the cornstarch into the remaining 1/4 cup coconut milk and whisk till smooth. Add mixture to simmering milk and stir constantly until thickened. Remove from the heat, add the coconut extract and coconut. To serve I sliced the bread pudding and served the coconut sauce on the side. I actually think the bread pudding tasted better on the second day, but maybe it was because I had it with the coconut sauce on the second day and plain on the first day. At any rate, I liked this recipe. For someone who likes their dessert not so sweet and delightfully fruity, you should try this recipe.
