Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons butter, room temperature, divided
3 slices white sandwich bread (about 5 1/4x4 1/4 inches each)
1 cup half and half
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread pudding didn't turn out very well. It was too dry and the sugar crust was too hard.

I found this bread pudding to be a bit dry. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.

This bread pudding was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
