I am not† a huge fan of ‘sweets’.† I know, I know, I’m weird.† Just have never liked them.† And I really don’t like chocolate at all!
I do like them more than I used to and Keilee likes them but she isn’t a huge eater of them.† She would rather have broccoli or spinach than chocolate.† Seems like whenever we make a cake or dessert, I end up throwing most of it away.
Now that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate a great dessert recipe.† I was reading a novel and in it the girl describes a dessert she made with Krispy Kreme donuts.† Well I had to find that recipe.
I turned to trusty Google and found one from Paula Deen but it wasn’t the same as the girl in the book.† Finally I found it and I am going to share it with you all.
This is SO GOOD!† I think if you ate the entire thing you would go into a sugar induced coma.† We shared it with neighbors and my Daddy and still had to throw the last little bit away.†
Here, for your tasting pleasure is “Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding”.† Make it…trust me…MAKE IT.
Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding
†††† 1 dozen Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
††† 1 small can sweetened condensed milk
††† 1 tsp cinnamon
††† 1/2 tsp salt
††† 2 eggs
†Butter Icing
††† 2 t. Vanilla Flavoring
††† 1/4 butter or margarine
††† 2 cups powdered sugar
†††† Cube doughnuts in bowl.† Pour sweetened condensed milk over doughnuts and toss lightly to evenly coat the chunks. In a small bowl whisk eggs, cinnamon and salt; pour over doughnut chunks. Stir until evenly distributed and set aside. Let set for 10-15 minutes to absorb as much moisture as possible.
†Bake in an oven safe dish at 350 degrees for approx. 30-40 minutes; until slightly crisp on top. You want the bread pudding to be moist, but no raw egg.
While baking make icing:
†In a microwave safe bowl melt butter. Add Vanilla flavoring and stir well. Slowly whisk in powdered sugar working out lumps.† [I had to add a little more butter to get the right consistency]†
Pour over hot bread pudding. Serve immediately.
This is RICH! †So sweet.† So good!† Yummy.
You will all love me! I promise 🙂
And to all my Roamies…next get together, I am bringing this.† You all are the first people I thought of when I saw the recipe. 😉

“Stressed spelled backwards is desserts.† Coincidence?† I think not!”† ~Author Unknown
“Seize the moment.† Remember all those women on the Titanic who waved off the dessert cart.”† ~Erma Bombeck
Was the book ‘To Die For’ by Linda Howard? Sounds like a similar recipe but the book recipe specified 2 dozen Krispy Kreme per batch of bread pudding. Nevertheless, planning to make your version soon *grin*
Oh my goodness. I sure hope one of the local grocery stores sells Krispy Kremes, because the nearest store is about 30 minutes away. This looks SO GOOD. I think I would almost eat the entire pan by myself and I am not kidding.
Yummo!
oh dear. i really do have a much bigger sweet tooth than my hips will allow. ha! nom-nom!
i linked to you today. 😉
I LOVE that Erma Bombeck quote! 🙂
What’s not to love here?! Except the calories maybe:)
Bread pudding is one of my all time favorite desserts!
I don’t like sweets either, and I would chose veggies over many things…but not chocolate!! I love chocolate.
This looks good. Can you believe I have never had a Krispy Kreme donut?
Oh my goodness – I may not recover from this one- my mouth is watering! for real – thanks for linking up with us at Kids in the Kitchen – you could be my new BFF 😉 drool
Wow! That does sound sweet! I do enjoy sweet things, although less now than I used to. I do really love chocolate, though. I like home baked treats the best, but honestly, if it’s too sweet, only a small taste will do for me.
So, what was the book you read? I’m curious!
I really like the quote about stressed being desserts spelled backwards 🙂
Thanks so much for linking up with us at Kids in the Kitchen. I think you hit your #1 fan- my son! He loves KK doughnuts and we treat him once a year, as he doesn’t do dairy and white flour. I think I will surprise him and make this for him for his 14th b-day! It looks VERY sweet and yummy! Homeschooling rocks!!! Agreed! 🙂
PS – What was the book? Was it any good? 🙂
Wow – that looks amazing. Although we try to keep ourselves in check, we are huge sweets fans over here. We should probably be entering a 12 step program to give you an idea of the pull of the sugar!
Karen, this looks SO SO good! I can’t wait to try it! I know my kids will just devour it!
🙂 Thanks so much for linking up! Hope you are having a great week.
First of all, I can’t believe that ANYONE would choose veggies over chocolate. I myself have been known to raid my children’s valentine candy stash………(I would only admit this to you 😉
This looks super yummy. It would not last long in my house!
