I have to try this panettone recipe. I love the stuff. I do, however, have a wonderful use for that dry K-mart stuff. It makes the best bread pudding I have ever tasted. I make an egg custard with only 1/4 c. sugar since the bread is sweet and add nutmeg and vanilla. I cut the bread into 1" slices and layer them in the dish. Sometimes I butter them lightly. The custard goes on and I let it soak 2 hrs. to over night in the refrigerator. Then I bake it as I would any bread pudding. Top this with your favorite topping: bourbon syrup, whipped cream, whatever. It is great. I also wanted to say that I just jazzed up some vanilla instant pudding by adding a bit (carefully) of the Fiore Sicilian. Makes a great filling for cream puffs (don't let them sit or they get damp) or a layer cake. Thanks for all the great recipes. IMP OOOOOHHH, sounds delicious, Irene... PJH
