Charlotte Shout started this week. It's an incredible outdoor food event with demos from tops chef's around the world and locally. You can purchase an array of foods at a minimal price. I can't wait till tonite. The creations are amazing.

I would love to go! We have a birthday party tonight, and I have a lot of school work the next few days. There were a couple chefs in particular that I wanted to see. Have fun comissaryqueen!

Charlotte Shout was great. The Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding seemed to be a great hit. I wish I had left room for it.

Sounds like great fun! And North Carolina is such a beautiful state. We have grandkids who live in Pisgah Forest.

Here's a recipe for the Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding that I got from Paula's Home Cooking:

Bill Nicholson's Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding with Butter Rum Sauce

Recipe courtesy Paula Deen
Yield: about 12 servings
User Rating: 5 Stars

2 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
2 (4.5-ounce) cans fruit cocktail (undrained)
2 eggs, beaten
1 (9-ounce) box raisins
1 pinch salt
1 or 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Butter Rum Sauce, recipe follows

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cube donuts into a large bowl. Pour other ingredients on top of donuts
and let soak for a few minutes. Mix all ingredients together until
donuts have soaked up the liquid as much as possible.

Bake for about 1 hour until center has jelled. Top with Butter Rum Sauce.

Butter Rum Sauce:
1 stick butter
1 pound box confectioners' sugar
Rum, to taste

Melt butter and slowly stir in confectioners' sugar. Add rum and heat
until bubbly. Pour over each serving of Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding.

Leave out the fruit cocktail and I'm in, Connie!

I'm with you, MB...that part didn't sound so good. Now, maybe some canned peaches would be good...

I can feel my arteries hardening ladies!
I would love to go to something like that. I don't go out to restaurants but maybe 2 times a year. I would really like to sample gourmet foods.

I believe that is the dessert that won at the Jack Daniels last year. We tried it, and was not overly impressed with it. Maybe it was the fruit cocktail. I think it would be a good one to tweak.
