Just look at those plump, juicy Royal Raisins! They cook in the caramely sauce and soak up some of that sweet goodness.

Layers of unbelievably soft croissants soaked in custard and caramel. The raisins peek out from every nook and cranny. Then, just when you think it couldn’t possible get any better . . . the glaze.

It’s dessert. It’s breakfast! It’s dessert! It’s breakfast.

I haven’t decided if this should be labeled a dessert or a breakfast. How about we make it for dessert then eat the leftovers for breakfast!?!? Problem solved.
