    Followed the recipe (replaced sugar with Splenda, used Woodford reserve (I'm a KY girl, best bread pudding EVER!!!! The sauce requires babysitting, but so worth it.

    This recipe is misleading because it only calls for a 45 minute cook time, yet when you get down to the sauce you find out you have to cook it for 2 hours. I tried to expedite the process but he sauce came out more like melted wax. I am sure a sauce like that cannot be rushed but it should be in the cook time as 2 hours. We ending up saving the sauce by using more butter and bourbon but at the point the alcohol was so strong that it was hard to finish serving. The actually bread pudding part is great I wouldu just recommend another type of sauce.

    I really like it because there aren't any ingredients that I don't keep in the house so anytime I have left over bread (or donuts I can make this without a trip to the store. We use day old donuts (jelly filled - YUM!! and cook in a large shallow pan to get crispy in every bite. We also cook the alcohol down before adding the butter.

    My family absolutely loved this pudding, but the sauce was a disaster. I'm sure the sauce part was my fault, but in my defense, a chef friend later informed me the sauce recipe is just asking to break (which is apparently what happened to mine. He recommended the bourbon should be cooked down first to reduce the alcohol and concentrate its flavor. Only then should any butter be added, slowly and over low heat. If it foams over, it's a goner.

    I thought the bread pudding was excellent. The hard sauce was VERY alcohol tasting, and I wish is were a more subtle tasting sauce for the top. i added nutmeg to the sauce, and it made it taste great. I would make it again, but try another Hard sauce recipe without all the alcohol.
