ever found, but I just stumbled across it.
Cracker Barrel's Bread Pudding
Sugared Pecans: In small skillet combine 2 tablespoons butter and
1 tablespoon oil, med-low heat, with 2-oz pecan pieces. Stir only till
heated and barely bubbly. Sprinkle with 4 tablespoons sugar.
Stir briskly only till sugar dissolves, on low heat AS THESE BURN QUICKLY!
Work fast. Dump them into paper towel lined plate.
Spread out to cool while you prepare the rest.
Plumped Raisins: In small saucepan combine 1/3 cup raisins and 1 cup
boiling water. Cover pan with lid 20 minutes. Drain and discard water.
Add 1/2 cup packaged shredded coconut to raisins. Set aside.
Dumplings: In dutch oven combine 6 cups water and 1/2 cup sugar. Bring to
boil. While you wait for that to boil, combine in medium bowl, 3 cups
Bisquick, 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, stirring with fork to moisten
thick dough. When water come to boil, drop dough by rounded tablespoonful
into boiling water, making about 14 dumplings. Cover pan with lid. Simmer
dumplings very gently 20 minutes. Uncover and let cook another 10 minutes
gently. Baste often in the liquid, which is now becoming thickened and
creamy looking. Remove pan from heat. With slotted spoon remove HALF of
dumplings to greased 8" square baking dish. Sprinkle with pecans and
raisins/coconut. Arrange rest of dumplings over that. Set aside.
Make sauce next.
Caramel Sauce: Strain remaining liquid into heavy 2 1/2-quart saucepan.
Bring to boil. Stir constantly. Add 1 cup packed light brown sugar,
stirring vigorously, med-heat till it boils briskly 2 or 3 minutes or
till sugar is completely dissolved and sauce drops from spoon in large
drops rather than like water. It should be the consistancy of smooth gravy.
Spoon sauce over dumplings filling dish right to the rim. Cool 15 minutes.
Cover; refrigerate to serve within few days. Micro warm servings or
use cold with a scoop of ice cream on top of each. Serves 6 to 8.

I won't comment on the rest of this recipe, but surely if you dump the
sugared pecans on a paper towel, you'd be eating paper? Shouldn't that be
silver foil (greased)?
