Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 3-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cut bread into 1-inch cubes; toast in a hot oven, then place in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, butter, half-and-half, brown sugar, pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. Pour mixture over bread and stir well to coat bread, then allow to sit 10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of the toffee chips then pour into the baking dish. Bake about 45 minutes or until custard is firm. Remove from the oven; drizzle with caramel topping and sprinkle with remaining toffee chips. Serve warm.
Notes: My mother always baked bread puddings and tried different ingredients to fit the occasion. I remember she made a pumpkin variety for fall but I never had the recipe. This is close to the way that I remember hers.
