"I love crockpot cooking & bread pudding, so finding this recipe so long ago that I cannot recall the source seemed like fate to me. It was scribbled on a piece of paper, but didn't include times. So I estimated the prep time since the crock pot cook time was already included in the directions. Sadly, I'll probably never be able to make it here in Iceland for lack of the pina colada drink mix I've never seen here. This clearly works best for an adult special occasion or dinner party. Enjoy!"
