    I used this recipe as a stepping off point, extemporizing with Parrot Bay Rum instead of Brandy. Added some toasted pecans and unsweetened coconut for a tropical interpretation. Very very good.

    I tried this recipe for the first time Thanksgiving 2010. I have received repeated requests for it since, It's easy, delicious, and different. As stated by another poster "OMG" Couldn't have said it better.

    Awesome! I must admit, I was taken a back with the amount of Brandy in the recipe. Smooth tasting dish. I had stale ciabatta bread that I wanted to use up and also added some raisons. Next time, I think I'll soak a few of the raisons in the brandy. Very light. Best ever!!! Many thanks.

    Excellent recipe! I added about 1 1/4 cups pecans to the pudding.

    This was an easy, fantastic tasting bread pudding! I had left over bread cubes after making my Thanksgiving stuffing. Everyone loved it! My oven bakes hot, so I needed to reduce the oven to 325 after the pre-heat for baking, but the recipe needs no alteration! This will definitely be made again!

    This recipe is sooo easy and delicious.
    I halved the recipe b/c I only had one loaf of stale baguette: about 10oz. I also used spiced rum, also because that's all I had. I tempered the eggs since I was fearful of scrambling them, and it didn't mention to do so or not. After reading another review, I put the sugar in with the hot milk/butter mixture, as it made sense that it wouldn't dissolve any other way. And yet another reviewer suggests raisins, so I tossed in a small handful of jumbo raisins last.
    I used an 8x8 pan sprayed w/ cooking spray, and it all fit perfectly!
    Between everyone - this may be the BEST bread pudding Ive ever made!
    You will not be disappointed....promise!

    This bread pudding is delicious. I used challah for richness. I also used Tuaca instead of brandy and it was a fantastic substitution! The slight bite from having alcohol was present, but the addition of a citrus and vanilla essence really finished off the recipe.
    I love bread pudding, and this recipe is so far my favorite.
