Moon Rock Bread Pudding

Recipe Description

If I want to go all out for Mardi Gras, I make this rich and delicious Moon Rock Bread Pudding. It is rich, creamy and chocolatey and any time I make it for dinner guests, they love it and request the recipe. The secret ingredient in this pudding is the Hawaiian sweet rolls. These rolls are sweetened with pineapple juice and it makes them the perfect ingredient to elevate your bread pudding! 

Start by toasting chunks of Hawaiian sweet roll. Prepare the bread pudding batter by mixing milk, cream, eggs and vanilla extract with sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Pour the batter over the toasted bread chunks in a baking dish. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top and bake in the oven. Serve hot drizzled with melted white chocolate and dusted with powdered sugar. Enjoy!

To make Moon Rock Bread Pudding, you will need the following ingredients:
