I have been experimenting with bread pudding for years, since it is my husbands favorite, and I don't have to throw out the old bread. The main ingredient that makes this recipe the best is the brown sugar instead of white sugar. This is a keeper and now my search is over. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
