This is rich, but so good! <br/>I've made it for several occasions & everyone just rants & raves over it.

This recipe sounded really good, but it doesn't really taste any different from a traditional bread pudding recipe. If I am going to make a recipe as indulgent as the ingredients in this one, I want it to taste indulgent and this recipe does not. It just tastes like a sweeter version of bread pudding without the cinnamon and spices.
