2. Mix in the sugars, cinnamon, and vanilla.

 
3. Cut the pieces of bread into cubes. The bigger the cubes, the more texture you will have when they're baked.

 
4. Fold the bread cubes into the egg mixture. Make sure they're all saturated. Set aside to soak.

 
5. In a large pan, melt the tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat.

8. Grease muffin tins and fill with bread pudding mixture. Bake in preheated oven for about 35 minutes.

 
9. While they are baking, cut each soft caramel into 4 little cubes.

10. Remove bread pudding cups from oven, leaving the heat on. Place 4 little caramel cubes on top of each bread pudding cup.

 
11. Return to oven and allow to bake at least another 10 minutes, until caramels are fully melted.

 
12. Allow to cool, then slide a knife around the edges of the cups and lift out.

 
13. You can serve them warm with cream. I like them as is, cooled down with the caramel parts chewy again. It's just like a caramel apple!
