{ S'mores Bread Pudding } #kingshawaiian

Experimenting isn't something I normally do in my kitchen. It's because I don't like to fail at stuff when it comes to cooking, I want everything perfect and I get really irritated when something doesn't come out like I think it should. I've always been like this toward cooking, but I'll have to say that within the past year, I've started to move away from my comfort zone just a little bit. Not a lot, but just a bit.

This bread pudding is the third flavor combination I've made since I convinced myself to try a Jack Daniels bread pudding recipe that a local chef had given me a few years ago. I've used that recipe base to make a S'mores Bread Pudding and now a S'mores Bread Pudding. So we're taking baby steps, using a base recipe to make different flavors of one dessert, to see what works and what doesn't. *fingers crossed* that one day I'll be able to stand in front of a counter full of food and whip up a delicious meal or dessert with no recipe or direction. For my bread pudding I always use King's Hawaiian sweet rolls at the base to build the flavors on. I don't know what made me start using them.

The original recipe for the Jack Daniels bread pudding called for day old french bread, perhaps it said something like "or use any type of sweet bread". Now that I think about it, I think it did say that and I went with King's Hawaiian sweet rolls, because that was the only kind of sweet bread I had bought before. Plus, 1 pack of King's Hawaiian sweet rolls is exactly what I need for each bread pudding recipe that I make.

Random note about King's Hawaiian bread, did you know that they have hamburger buns now' Oh my word, I mean King's Hawaiian sweet rolls are like heaven sent when it comes to rolls, so I can only imagine with King's Hawaiian hamburger buns are like. mm mmmmm.
