Preheat oven to 350. Generously grease a 5x5 casserole/baking dish. Cut up 4 day-old bagels (I used Cinn/Raisin). Place them in the casserole/baking dish. Scald 2 cups milk, then add 1/4 c. of butter. Once butter is melted into the milk, pour over bagels. Then pour 1 c. of heavy whipping cream over bagels - stir. Let sit 5 minutes. In a small bowl, beat 3 egg and add 1 1/2 c. white sugar, 3 T cinnamon and 2 t vanilla extract. Pour over bagels and stir until well combined. Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes - make sure knife inserted comes out clean, otherwise, continute cooking in 5 minute intervals. Scoop some into a bowl and top with vanilla ice cream and warmed caramel topping. REEEEEDICULOUS!!!
