This was great! I was craving a late night snack & had some Ciabatta bread for a party the next day. I took a few slices & made this. I rubbed the bread pieces with some garlic after they came off the heat too (I love garlic. I will def serve this in the future.

I had steered clear of Balsamic Vinegar after trying some that was horrible. But I saw Giada make this and thought I would give it a go. It was heavenly!!! I purchased very good Balsamic Vinegar and followed the recipe to a T. When done correctly the vinegar has a fruity citrus taste to it. It is the perfect dessert for someone that does not like things that are overly sweet but delicious just the same.
