About

If you'd be so kind as to pardon the pun, this dessert is right on the money! Money Bread Pudding is truly, amazingly, incredibly delicious, and you'll be feeling flush as you dig into it! The bread pieces are truly tender, having absorbed a creamy, zesty, honey-sweet sauce with notes of bright orange and warm cinnamon. Draped atop, is a sugary, summery strawberry sauce electrified with orange flavor. You'd willingly spend money to enjoy Money Bread Pudding... but you don't have to! You can make it all on your own in a breeze!
