I didn't know how to add my recipe for Bread Pudding here, but it did go to the recipe file....Good and easy recipe, so take a look there and enjoy! figured it out...so here goes nothing.

There used to be a cafeteria style dining place near our old home called Duff's. DH would take us there on Sunday after church because the kids would always eat what they took and it wasn't too bad on the wallet for a large family. This was my favorite sweet item on their menu and it always smelled just wonderful. I still make it but cut the recipe in half for just the two of us. I had to experiment with and alter alot of recipes before I got one that tasted genuine to the original. Hope you enjoy it. Ann in TN
