    1/2 cup raisins
    1/3 cup plus 3 tablespoons bourbon or brandy
    12 ounces fresh French bread, crusts trimmed, cut into 1" pieces
    1 1/2 cups milk (do not use low-fat or nonfat)
    1 cup sugar
    3/4 cup whipping cream
    3 large eggs
    3 large egg yolks, divided
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter

    Combine raisins and 1/3 cup bourbon in small bowl. Soak for 30
    minutes. Drain.

    Preheat oven to 375F. Place bread in large bowl. Whisk milk, 3/4 cup
    sugar, cream, eggs, 2 egg yolks, vanilla and cinnamon in medium bowl
    to blend. Pour egg mixture over bread. Add raisins; mix gently to
    coat bread. Transfer mixture to 9x5x3-inch glass loaf baking dish.

    Cover baking dish with foil. Bake pudding 40 minutes. Remove foil
    and bake until top is golden and tester inserted into center comes
    out clean, about 30 minutes longer. Cool slightly.

    Melt butter in top of double boiler set over simmering water. Add
    3 tablespoons bourbon, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 egg yolk. Whisk until
    mixture thickens slightly and candy thermometer registers 160F, about
    1 minute. Remove from heat.

    Cut hot or warm bread pudding into 6 slices. Transfer to plates.
