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.
