- 2 tbsp. of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of raisins (soaked in for 1 hour in ¼ cup of bourbon)
- ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon

Instructions:
- Dice up the Croissants into cubes and allow them to dry for 24 hours or bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 12 minutes.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place milk in large bowl and add the dried Croissants to allow them to absorb all the milk.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs then add in sugar, vanilla, allspice, cinnamon and raisins. Pour this mixture over the Croissant and milk mixture, gently stirring it in.
- Use the melted butter to coat a 9x13 pan.
- Pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 35-45 minutes at 350 degrees, or until the liquid has set.
