Donut "Bread" Pudding

Lately, I've had a donut obsession.  For some reason, the other day I brought home 2 dozen donuts from the donut shop.  There was no way that the four of us would eat all those donuts before they went stale!  I wasn't about to let any of that donutty goodness go to waste, so I searched the internet for donut bread pudding recipes (my mom makes bread pudding with day old cinnamon rolls so I figured day old donuts would work too).  So, here's my adaptation of a couple of recipes I found:

Donut Bread Pudding

Ingredients

• 10 day old glazed donuts
• 1/2 qt heavy cream
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 cup mini-chocolate chips
• 7 ozs sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup brewed espresso (chilled)

Directions:

1. Cut doughnuts into cubes. Mix other ingredients in a bowl except chocolate chips, sweetened milk and espresso.
2. Pour over doughnuts. Sprinkle chocolate chip over mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes.
3. Whip espresso and sweetened condensed milk spoonful on top of bread pudding when serving.
4. Store leftovers covered in the fridge.

This recipe was a hit with the family! My oldest boy ate two servings and made "yummy" comments the whole time he ate!  We'll do this one again!!

Enjoy!!
