  6. Now if I could just save some limoncello and ave some leftover (we love it) this will get made. It brightens up the bread pudding.

  9. Well this is something different that I've never heard of. I had Limoncello when I was on the Amalfi Coast so I would imagine in bread pudding it's got to be delicious! Now to make some limoncello or I guess I could buy it.

  11. Now this is an excellent use for limoncello! Bread pudding does make for an upscale and tasty dessert. With the lemon flavor, no doubt this would be a sure fire hit at any occasion. Also, the lemon sorbet means a double dose of citrus-which is always welcome. Excellent post!
