Bread Pudding

HOW TO MAKE IT :

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place bread in an even layer in a greased 9 x 13 baking dish. Let bread sit out, uncovered, overnight to harden slightly.
2. Pour raisins over bread and fold in slightly.
3. In a medium bowl whisk together eggs, milk, sugars, cinnamon, and vanilla. Once mixed, pour over bread. Press down to coat all bread. Let soak for 20 minutes.
4. After soaking, preheat oven to 350°F.
5. Bake 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean (or internal temperature is 160°F).
6. After the bread pudding has baked for about 10 minutes, start making the vanilla glaze. The glaze takes about 20 minutes to thicken.
