Personal Notes:
Take tres leches cake in a new direction by making this decadent bread pudding recipe. To get the flavor of tres leches into bread pudding, bake the bread cubes in a mix of sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and regular milk.

*To dry bread, spread bread cubes in a 15x10-inch baking pan. Cover loosely and let stand overnight or bake in a 300°F oven 10 to 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Bread will continue to dry as it cools.
