Pandesal is a staple food for most Filipino households. It is often served during breakfast and paired with a cup of coffee or served in merienda with different sandwich spreads or fillings.

Kara David's pandesal pudding

In a recent episode of Pinas Sarap's live cooking show on Facebook, ECQusina, host Kara David leveled up the Pinoy favorite pandesal by turning it into a pudding, a famous European dessert.

Plus, she also made an easy-to-prepare butterscotch sauce.
