Creme Caramel Bread Pudding - Bon Appetit
I love caramel! Needed to save this for holiday time baking. From BA: This bread pudding has a built-in caramel sauce: Once the pudding is assembled, the magic happens on its own. To keep the water in the roasting pan from boiling (which would affect the texture of the pudding), add several ice cubes to the water every 10 to 15 minutes to bring down the temperature.
