Are you still eating leftovers? We seem to have a lot of cakes, cookies, biscuits and chocolates left. My SIL brought a large Stollen down at Christmas and although half of it had gone, there was still a big piece left and it was beginning to dry up, so I decided to make it into dessert.
I buttered the oven dish, sliced the Stollen and laid it into the dish added a few spoonfuls of apricot jam (left over from marzipanning the Christmas Cake), beat together 3 eggs and about 1/2 pint of milk and poured it over the Stollen. I didn't add any sugar to the mixture as I would with plain bread, the Stollen was quite sweet enough.
I know I'm a day late, but I am entering this for Frugal Food Fridays
run by Helen at Fuss Free Flavours.
What a great suggestions Janice! Sadly we don't have any Christmasssy leftovers, erm, leftover, on account of my greed, but this might be worth baking another loaf of stollen for...
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm, that looks good Janice and would work well with a lot of cakes. Would be great with Christmas cake. If I see one on sale I am going to make this. Yum!

ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part! What a great idea!

Frugal food friday is currently monthly until I get some gueest hosts lined up - let me know if you are interested.
Great way to use up your leftovers! I don't seem to have any left... oops? ;)
ReplyDeleteI love stollen so much there are never any leftovers in my flat! But if there were I'd love this.
ReplyDeleteJanice, this sounds really good and a great way to use up leftover stollen. I didn't have any this Christmas, but I suspect if we'd got one, it wouldn't have had time to dry out ;-)
ReplyDeleteoh YES!!!!!!! this is heavenly... so stodgy but utter heaven... now I wish i'd made that stollen cake...
ReplyDeleteOh my word - that looks positively sinful but such a treat at the same time!
ReplyDeleteThat is SUCH a great way of using up all those bits and pieces that are left over from Christmas! It looks all puffed up and light, my kind of pudding Janice!
ReplyDeletegreat idea:) mind you, I really love stollen, the idea of having any leftovers!!!!
ReplyDeletelooks great! I wish I had stollen left over!!!! mine just goes!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea - I have done this with leftover croissants and even with banana bread when it's passed it's best (with raspberry jam spread on it!).
ReplyDeleteWe have leftover cheese but there are no complaints from me about it!
