rum glazed coconut bread pudding

Coconut Bread Pudding is a crazy popular Caribbean dessert, and for good reason: it’s like a cozy sweater for the belly. This recipe was adapted from a woman named Jennifer Molnar who took a cooking class in Saint Kitts & Nevis. When I saw the rum, brown sugar, butter, and coconut, I knew I wouldn’t quit until this treat was in my tummy. It whips together in just a few minutes (bonus party talk? All the ingredients can be waiting in your pantry for those friends who just “pop over” during the holidays). While traditional recipes favor white bread, I found using whole wheat gave the pudding a little oomph in the face of the mad, wonderful richness. The original recipe also said to cool before serving, but there's no doubt about it: in my house bread pudding is served straight from the oven, still bubbling. Note that the amount of butter topping seems extreme -- go with it. You'll be glad you did.
