    1
    1. In a saucepan, add all the ingredients for the pudding on medium heat and cook while whisking until the mixture has thickened and can coat the back of a spoon.
    2. Place the mixture into a serving dish, and cover with plastic wrap to prevent a film. Place into the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours.
    3. While the pudding is cooling, place the California Raisins in a bowl and cover with freshly brewed hot coffee, sugar and bourbon. Let sit while pudding is setting.
    4. Once pudding has set, top off with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, a dollop of whipped cream and a teaspoon of the bourbon and coffee-soaked raisins.
    5. Serve
