Panettone bread pudding

Although I'm proud of being an Italian, I can't take any credit for this wonderful recipe. My dear friend Debra made this for me on a LONG and distressing road trip to North Carolina. My first ever road trip was an interesting one, to say the least. The bright spot of the trip (besides Debra being an awsome companian) was her unbelievable bread pudding!

Debra's Bread Pudding:

• Panettone bread (can be purchased at Home Goods, or a speciality market)
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips (I used Godiva chips)
• 1 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup condensed milk
• 2 eggs

Grease a glass baking dish. Thickly cut Panettone into cubes. Place 1/3 of the Panettone in the bottom of the baking dish. Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl. Pour half over the Panettone. Put the rest of the Panettone into the pan and add the rest of the mix. Press it down until all is soaked into the Panettone. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes.

YUM! Enjoy!
