This recipe is incredibly easy and comes out so beautiful that your family or guests will think you've been slaving over them all day. It takes a bit of a time investment, about an hour and 15 minutes with prep and cooking time, but the cute little Wild Mushroom Bread Pudding Cups you get as a result are so worth the investment. And, our kids loved them, too!
