Best Ever Bread Pudding
The secret to incredible bread pudding with a soft middle and crisp edges starts with leftover dinner rolls. I picked up the rich brown sugar sauce recipe from my friend Kathryn Gartmann. A big drizzle of it takes this dessert over the top and really makes it the best bread pudding ever. —Maria Petrella, Taste of Home Prep Cook

Excellent! I used the Italian fruit bread. Did the rest as directed, I will make this again. I made my own sauce thought. 1/2 c very soft butter, 1/2 c icing sugar, mix well then add rum mixing well until no more will incorporate. chill well and put on the HOT bread pudding. Janet VFE
The bread pudding is delicious. However, something happened to my sauce. The butter separated and I ended up pouring about 1/2 cup of butter off the finished sauce. What was left was delicious. Any ideas on why it separated.
I've made it twice and found no reason to change anything about this bread pudding. My friends are always asking when am i going to make again. i used New Orleans french bread
Loved it! Used dinner rolls, and it tasted good! I loved the sauce. It wasn’t too sweet and it made the pudding perfect. Will definitely make this again. Very easy! ??
I had a lot of leftover hoagie and kaiser rolls so decided to try out making bread pudding. I needed to halve the recipe and thought I adjusted accordingly but it took forever to bake...well over the 45 minutes before the knife came out clean. But when it was finally done!!!....Oh my goodness, definitely worth the wait. There was plenty of flavor, I loved the crusty top and moist middle. Some bread puddings I've tried are rather dry and I was praying this didn't turn out that way...no worries. Even as I'm indulging in a slice for breakfast this morning, I'm smiling at how delicious it is. The sauce just takes it over the top. I would definitely recommend this recipe and I plan to make it again with a little fruit and nuts.
The best ever. Just add some raisins and roasted pecans and it is the best I ever had anywhere.
My husband loved this recipe,especially the sauce. A definite make again.
I was never a fan of bread pudding until I tried this one...delicious!
This is probablly one of the best bread pudding recipes I have ever tried. Didn't change a thing and worth every single calorie!!
