NOTES : Peachy Rentenbach is the owner of La Becasse, a restaurant in

Burdickville, near Traverse City. Her delicious breakfast pudding

tastes like fancy french toast studded with Michigan dried

cherries.

 

Chupa's Notes: Cut the fat by using fatfree half & half, margarine,

and eggbeaters. I used Entemann's fatfree pound cake and turned it

into dessert. Soak the cherries in Cointreau, or any other sweet

liquer for half an hour; drain before using.
