Coffee Doughnut Bread Pudding

I know, I know who on earth has leftover 

DOUGHNUTS?

We did (only this once)!

In fact we had 3 dozen leftover after our

Mardi Gras parade.

So what's a girl to do?

You can't throw out the goods.

Our answer is...

Coffee Doughnut Bread Pudding with Rum Sauce

Ingredients:

1 dozen Day Old Doughnuts

2 cups Milk

1 14oz Condensed Milk

1 1/4 Coffee (cooled)

6 Egg Yolks

1tsp Cinnamon 

1/2 cup Light Brown Sugar

1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick) softened

Rum Sauce

1/4 cup Butter (1/2 stick)

1 cup Powdered Sugar

Rum to taste

Directions:

1- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  

Grease a 9x13 pan.

2- Cut or tear doughnuts into pieces and place in pan.

3- Whisk together milk, condensed milk, coffee 

(take a moment and drink a sip of your coffee), 

egg yolks and cinnamon.

4- Pour mixture over doughnuts and mix.

Let sit and get soggy.

5- In another bowl, mix together brown sugar & butter.

Sprinkle over top of doughnuts.

6- Bake 40-45 minutes until set.

7- Melt butter on high heat in small sauce pan

 add sugar stirring until blended.

Remove from heat.

Add Rum to taste.

8- Serve hot with sauce drizzled over top 

with a pipping hot cup of coffee

or a icy glass of milk.

I have to say this is one yummy dish.

I love the crunchiness of the brown sugar on top.
