Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium-sized saucepan. Crumble toasted bread into it. Sprinkle a generous amount of sugar (I used 1 tablespoon). Stir. Add milk (just enough to soak the bread a wee bit). Cover with lid tightly and let sit for 5 minutes over low heat. Cool, then mash with fork to desired consistency. Serve with jelly on top!
Yummmmmmmmmy. That was today’s merienda. I got it from a book called “The Art of Expecting.” It said that this was a great replacement to sweet cookies ’cause it’s much healthier. It’s also great comfort food for kids. Well, it sure comforted me!
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.
