From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...Those of you who love the bearly sweet desserts of Europe may be excused from tonight's post, but I do hope you'll return tomorrow evening when I'll be featuring something less treacly to balance things for you. If, however, you have a sweet tooth that rivals that of the critters that hover around a pie chest, keep reading. Kelsey Nixon has created this unusual bread pudding for The Cooking Channel, and it is a great way to end a spicy Southwestern-style barbecue. While her creation is not cheap to make, it's really easy to prepare and I think those of you those of you who are looking for new ways to use your slow cooker will be tempted to give it a try. I followed her recipe to a tee, save for the fact that I used a liner of paper towels under the lid to capture excess moisture and prevent it from making the pudding goopy. The sweet lovers at the table had nothing but good words to say about the finished pudding, so I'm confident that it's good enough to share with you tonight. I will, however, repeat, it is very sweet and meant only for those of you who aren't afraid of sugar shock. Here is how this pudding and sauce are made.
