This slow cooker 3-ingredient Irish cream bread pudding is one of those cozy, no-fuss desserts that tastes like you spent all afternoon in the kitchen. It starts with store-bought cinnamon rolls, a splash of Irish cream liqueur, and some heavy cream to turn everything into a rich, custardy treat. The edges get just a little crisp while the middle stays soft and pillowy, and the whole thing steams away in your slow cooker while you go about your day. My uncle swears this is the best dessert I’ve ever made, and honestly, for something this simple, it feels a little bit like magic.
Serve this warm right out of the slow cooker, spooned into bowls. It’s lovely on its own, but a little whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top really makes it special, especially if you drizzle any extra glaze from the pot over the top. A cup of hot coffee or decaf after dinner pairs beautifully with the Irish cream flavor, and for kids or non-drinkers, a glass of cold milk or hot cocoa works just as well. This is a perfect dessert for Sunday suppers, holiday brunches, or any time you want something comforting without a lot of work.
