This is a family favorite. Instead of loaves of bread I use Rhodes Dinner rolls (24) I cut each roll in half and roll it in dry pudding mix. The COOK and SERVE pudding works the best. I melt the brown sugar and butter together and pour over the top. I also use a bundt pan it looks beautiful served on a platter. YUM! Thanks for sharing.
