Roll out pastry into a large rectangle. Spread the butter evenly over the pastry, then sprinkle on 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon or nutmeg. Roll up the dough jelly roll style and pinch to seal. Cut into 12 even pieces. Place the rolls in the prepared pan.

Answer 2

Bread & Butter Pudding with Strawberries

4 large eggs

1 c. half-and-half

11 T. sugar

2 T. dark rum

1 T. pure vanilla extract

8 slices white bread (something like country potato, with a bit of heft to it)

4 T. unsalted butter, softened

1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled & sliced

Whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, 7 T. of sugar, rum and vanilla. Set aside

Spread top of each slice of bread with generous amount of butter. Cut slices in half on the diagonal. Overlap bread slices in oiled 9x13 pan. Pour egg mixture over bread and let stand 1 hour.

Heat oven to 400° degrees. Sprinkle pudding with 2 T. sugar. Bake until puffed and golden brown, and pudding has set, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine strawberries with remaining 2 T. sugar. Let stand while pudding bakes. Serve strawberries with bread pudding.
